About Dana

Dana Fritche is a licensed professional in Wisconsin, holding an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) credential and bringing a background of seven years in social work along with four years specifically in clinical mental health and substance abuse counseling. She has worked with people facing addictions and substance use challenges, as well as individuals seeking support with motivation, self-esteem and confidence. Her clinical experience also includes supporting clients with bipolar disorder and depression.

Dana approaches therapy with the belief that each person is the expert of their own story and that existing strengths are central to overcoming life’s challenges. She frames the work as a collaborative process, recognizing the courage required to reach out and take the first steps toward a more fulfilling life. In sessions she aims to help clients build on their abilities, clarify goals, and develop practical strategies to manage symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning.

Clients can expect a supportive clinician who values respect, partnership, and steady guidance through recovery and personal growth. Dana emphasizes empowerment and practical progress as people work toward greater stability, confidence, and well-being.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience, offering a supportive environment where the therapist listens carefully and helps the individual identify their goals and strengths. This approach is useful for building self-esteem, increasing motivation, and working through life changes in a way that feels respectful and empowering.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that helps people recognize unhelpful thought patterns and try out new ways of responding. CBT can be effective for managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and mood conditions by teaching tools for emotion regulation and problem solving.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines acceptance and change strategies and offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsivity, and improving relationships. It can be especially helpful for people coping with mood instability, self-destructive behaviors, or difficulty tolerating strong feelings.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and the therapist will work collaboratively with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions are adapted over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy with a licensed professional brings practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. This variety of formats makes it easier to fit care into a busy life, maintain continuity of support during transitions, and access help from home or wherever therapy is most workable for the individual.
