About Dana
Dana Krumholz is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, grief, and addiction concerns. She hears what feels overwhelming and works with each person to build practical skills that ease day-to-day life. Dana’s style is straightforward and focused on small, useful changes rather than long lectures.
Dana earned a master’s degree in Clinical Counseling from the University of Northern Colorado and has worked in community mental health since 2011.
Background and approach
Her background includes many years supporting people with PTSD, bipolar disorder, substance use, and mood concerns. She has spent significant time teaching coping skills to reduce intrusive thoughts and intense emotions. She uses a handful of approaches that fit real-life problems.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, which she has led group sessions in for years, offers clear coping strategies for stress and strong feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Client-centered work keeps the person’s goals and values central throughout treatment.
Dana tends to meet people where they are. Sessions focus on learning and practicing skills that match daily demands. For people facing addiction issues, she combines motivational interviewing and practical guidance to support sustained change.
Outside of work she enjoys reading, running, and hiking. Those activities are how she models self-care and keeps perspective. She aims to help people feel stronger, more capable, and more able to move forward.

How Dana's approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following a person's goals. It helps when someone needs acceptance, clear feedback, and a space to decide what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete exercises to reduce anxiety, panic, and depressive patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes learning specific coping skills like distress tolerance and emotion regulation that are useful for anger and intense emotions.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Dana works together with each person to pick methods that match their needs and preferences. She adjusts tools over time based on what helps most and encourages people to try strategies in real life between sessions.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for interactive skill teaching and role practice. Phone sessions can fit a short break from work or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, homework support, or people who prefer writing to talking. These options make it easier to match therapy to daily routines and keep progress moving forward.
