Our therapists offer DBT / dialectical behavior therapy in Allentown, PA

I am Dana DeLemos and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and other difficult life experiences. My approach is compassionate, collaborative and strengths-based. I enjoy helping clients better understand themselves and the patterns that may be holding them back while developing practical skills, building confidence, and creating meaningful change in their lives.

I take a person-centered, strengths-based approach, meeting you where you are while helping you identify patterns, build practical coping skills, and develop greater self-awareness. I draw from evidence-based approaches while recognizing that therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Together, we'll find strategies that fit your needs, experiences, and goals.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel difficult, and you don't have to have everything figured out before you begin. I strive to meet you with compassion, curiosity, and without judgment as we work toward the changes that matter to you. When you're ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment and take the next step.

I am a licensed professional counselor and school psychologist with over 25 years of experience working with children, adults, and families in community, outpatient, and school settings. I specialize in anxiety, depression, and trauma, and I also bring extensive experience supporting clients with autism, learning disabilities, and intellectual disabilities. I believe in every person's capacity for growth, and I tailor my approach to each individual's strengths and needs.

My work is grounded in empathy and active listening. Using evidence-based approaches—including cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and client-centered therapy—I work collaboratively with clients to build emotional resilience, strengthen coping skills, and foster lasting change.

Life is full of demands: work, family, relationships, and everything in between. You don't have to navigate it alone. I look forward to working with you—book a session and let's start uncovering your best self together.
