Getting to know Dina McManus

My name is Dina McManus. I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience providing client-centered, solution-focused therapy. I have maintained an established private practice since 2004. I earned my Master's in Social Work from The State University of New York (SUNY). I am currently licensed to practice in both New York and North Carolina. In my practice, my goal is to create a supportive environment that helps clients identify and achieve their goals. I specialize in supporting clients with a wide variety of concerns, including symptoms of stress, depression, anxiety, and complex trauma. Beyond my work as a therapist, I provide training and consultation regionally and nationally on trauma-informed care, adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), sexually harmful behavior, vicarious trauma, and self-care. My approach is strength-based and client-centered, focusing on helping clients identify and overcome obstacles to their success. I have a long history of working with older adolescents and adults of all ages, offering individual, couples, and family therapy. My clients find me both supportive and direct in my communication style. For the past 20 years, I have been responsible for residential and outpatient clinics at a treatment center for at-risk youth and their families, with a mission to reduce out-of-home placements and involvement in the juvenile justice system. Throughout this time, I have also maintained my private practice to support people in overcoming barriers to their success. I am driven by a commitment to help people achieve whatever success means to them. Goal setting with my clients is a collaborative process built on trust. Our first sessions focus on engagement and developing a trusting relationship to identify and set goals for therapy.
