More About Dana

I'm Dana Belletiere - an online therapist with a focus on helping clients live authentic, empowered, intentional lives.

I work with individuals that tend to put their own wants and needs at the bottom of the list. They want to improve how they feel, but have trouble taking the time and energy for themselves. They are looking to ask more from their relationship and careers, but don't know how to go about doing so.

Through a unique process of self-reflection, self-acceptance, and self-empowerment, I help clients understand and take care of the different parts of themselves, building confidence along the way. I work with clients in New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts. I provide online therapy, which allows for distance treatment and flexible scheduling.
