Dana Boyko, LCSW

Meet Dana Boyko, LCSW:

Specialist in Perinatal Mental Health & Psychodynamic Therapy

​

Are you feeling "stuck" in patterns that no longer serve you? Whether you are navigating the complex emotions of infertility, the transition into motherhood, or the weight of long-standing anxiety, you don’t have to untangle it alone. I provide a high-level, specialized approach to therapy that moves beyond surface-level symptoms to address the root causes of your distress.

​

With a post-graduate Fellowship in Adult Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, I specialize in helping clients understand how their past experiences and family dynamics shape their present reality. My work is particularly focused on:

​

Perinatal Mental Health: Supporting women and their partners through the unique challenges of pregnancy, infertility, and postpartum depression/anxiety.

​

Life Transitions: Helping adolescents and adults navigate career shifts, relationship distress, and identity exploration.

​​

Trauma & Identity: Providing a safe, affirming space where individuals can explore grief, heal from past trauma, and better understand their identities.

​

A Collaborative, Evidence-Based Partnership

I blend the depth of psychodynamic work with the practical tools of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness. As a mother and a lifelong learner, I bring a balance of lived empathy and rigorous clinical training to every session. We won't just talk about the "what." We will discover the "why" and build a path toward genuine, long-lasting healing. I’m also committed to providing a safe, affirming space for individuals of all races, backgrounds, sexual orientations, and gender identities.

If you are looking to get to the root of your struggles and create long-lasting change, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I offer a free fifteen-minute consultation to collaboratively discuss whether we’d be a good fit.​​​

Rates: $190 for 50 minute session

​

The above rate is the full fee this therapist charges for a standard 50 minute session. However, we do not want cost to be prohibitive of people getting the help they need. All of our therapists provide a portion of their services for a reduced fee to help those who can benefit from psychotherapy but might not be able to afford their full fee.
