Getting to know Dina Basarab
Hi, I'm Dina, a licensed clinical social worker and your potential partner in navigating life's twists and turns. Think of me as your guide, cheerleader, and occasional reality-checker-all rolled into one. With over a decade of experience, I specialize in helping people with anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, and more. I'm here to help you feel less overwhelmed and more empowered.
I earned my Master's in Social Work from Colorado State University and my Bachelor's from the University of Washington. I became a therapist because I believe everyone deserves a space where they can be themselves-no filters, no judgment. Plus, I'm a sucker for those “aha!” moments when things start to click for my clients. Seeing people grow, heal, and find their way is what keeps me going (well, that and a solid cup of coffee or two).
If you're ready to take the first step (or even if you're just curious), let's talk! Therapy doesn't have to be intimidating-it can actually be kind of fun (yes, really). I can't wait to meet you and hear your story.
What should a new client know about working with you?
What You’ll Take Away From Our Sessions When we work together, my goal is for you to leave each session feeling heard, supported, and a little lighter than when you walked in. Here’s what you can expect to take away from our time together:
Clarity and Insight: We’ll unpack what’s going on in your life and make sense of it together. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of yourself, your patterns, and what’s really driving your thoughts and feelings.
Practical Tools: Therapy isn’t just about talking—it’s about taking action. I’ll share strategies and tools you can use right away to manage stress, improve relationships, or tackle whatever’s on your plate.
A Stronger Sense of Self: Over time, you’ll feel more confident in who you are and what you need. Whether it’s setting boundaries, embracing self-compassion, or finding your voice, we’ll work on helping you feel more grounded and empowered.
A Safe Space to Be Real: Life can be messy, and that’s okay. In our sessions, you can show up exactly as you are—no filters, no judgment. Sometimes, just having a place to vent or cry can be incredibly healing.
Progress, Not Perfection: Therapy is a journey, not a quick fix. But as we work together, you’ll start to notice small shifts—maybe you’ll feel calmer, more in control, or just a little more hopeful. Those small wins add up!
Ultimately, my hope is that you’ll leave our sessions feeling more connected to yourself and equipped to handle whatever comes your way. And hey, if we share a laugh or two along the way, even better!
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Therapy with me is like having a heartfelt conversation with someone who really gets it. I’m not here to sit silently and nod (though I do have a great listening face). My style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I blend evidence-based tools with a good dose of humor and practicality to help you make sense of what’s going on and take steps toward change. Whether you’re dealing with big emotions, tricky relationships, or just feeling stuck, we’ll tackle it together.
