Dana Krumholz , LPC

Dana Krumholz holds a Master’s Degree in Clinical Counseling from the University of Northern Colorado and practices as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Addictions Counselor. With 12 years of experience in community mental health, she has worked with people facing depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, substance use concerns, bipolar disorder, and relationship challenges. Dana focuses on teaching practical skills to manage intrusive thoughts and reduce the patterns that contribute to anxiety and low mood, and she blends structured techniques with a collaborative, compassionate approach.

She has led Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) groups for six years and integrates DBT skills into individual work to help clients build healthier coping strategies for stress and emotion regulation. Dana also uses other evidence-informed methods to adapt treatment to each person’s goals, meeting clients where they are and helping them develop steps they can use in daily life. Her background in addiction treatment adds focused support for people navigating recovery and substance-related challenges.

Outside of her professional work, Dana enjoys reading, running, and hiking as part of her own self-care routine. She values watching clients grow, helping them develop resilience, and supporting them as they move toward feeling happier, healthier, and stronger.

DBT, CBT, and Client-Centered Care Delivered Online

Dana draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach concrete skills for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsive behaviors, and improving interpersonal effectiveness - an approach especially helpful for stress, emotion regulation, and patterns that contribute to self-harm or relationship conflict. Dana also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that drive anxiety and depression, offering practical tools for symptom reduction and daily coping. In addition, a client-centered stance guides sessions so that treatment is shaped by each person’s experience and priorities, emphasizing empathy, collaboration, and respect for individual goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dana works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts interventions over time as progress and challenges emerge.

Online therapy modalities such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexible ways to connect with licensed professionals from home, work, or on the go. These options make it easier to schedule consistent care, maintain momentum between appointments, and access support in formats that suit different lifestyles and comfort levels.
