Dana Schneider-Kovach, LCSW

Dana Schneider-Kovach is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Kentucky with nine years of professional experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, work through trauma and abuse, and address substance use concerns. She also supports clients with depression, low self-esteem, motivation, and confidence.

Her approach is straightforward and practical. Sessions focus on day-to-day problems and concrete skills. She uses techniques that help people notice thoughts, commit to values, and practice new behaviors. Mindfulness practices and problem-focused strategies are part of how she works.

Dana draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. That means conversations may include identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, learning emotion regulation skills, and setting values-based goals. She also uses motivational techniques for people dealing with alcohol or drug concerns.

Clients can expect a respectful, sensitive approach that emphasizes dignity. The therapist helps people define what matters to them and take small practical steps toward those goals. Sessions tend to be focused and goal-oriented, with room for whatever issues come up in daily life.

For people juggling work, caregiving, or other responsibilities, Dana aims to make therapy relevant to everyday pressures. She works in English and is licensed in Kentucky as an LCSW. If someone wants to begin, they are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
