   About Dinah

   Dr. Dinah Meyer is an Ohio psychologist with 25 years of experience helping adults and adolescents navigate stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, and life transitions. She holds a PhD in Counseling Psychology from Ohio State University and an M.A. in Developmental Psychology, and she blends a warm, empathic style with practical techniques. Her approach encourages people to take the lead in sessions while she supports them in building skills that last beyond therapy.

   She has worked in community mental health, private practice, and school settings, and also teaches psychology at a university in Ohio. That range means she has seen many kinds of problems and practical ways to address them. Common concerns she helps with include depression, PTSD, parenting and career questions, and compassion fatigue related to COVID-19.

   In sessions she draws on client-centered methods and solution-focused strategies, alongside cognitive behavioral tools and motivational interviewing. This mix helps people set clear goals, practice new skills, and notice what works. She encourages clients to use their own strengths and to try small, manageable changes between meetings.

   People can expect a calm, supportive presence that encourages honest conversation and steady movement toward goals. Dr. Meyer aims to help clients build resources so they can manage future challenges more confidently. She looks forward to hearing each person’s story and working together toward meaningful change.

2. How these approaches translate to online sessions

   Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change and strengthening motivation in simple, collaborative conversation. It can help with issues like managing mood, tackling substance use concerns, or making life changes by clarifying values and next steps.
   
   Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening with empathy and respecting the person's perspective. It helps when someone needs a supportive space to sort through feelings, grief, or relationship strain. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical strategies to identify unhelpful thinking and try small behavioral changes that reduce anxiety or depression symptoms.
   
   Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. Sessions are collaborative and can shift over time as progress is made.
   
   The biography does not list which online formats are used, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when helpful, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to remote conversation while focusing on practical steps you can use between meetings.
