About Dinah

Dr. Dinah Meyer is an Ohio Psychologist (OH Psychologist P.5269) with 25 years of clinical experience. She has worked in community mental health, private practice, and school settings, and also teaches psychology at a university in Ohio. Her practice focuses on anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship concerns, parenting, and career issues.

She helps adults and adolescents talk through stress, mood problems, and life transitions. Common topics include parenting strain, blended family issues, family of origin concerns, intimacy-related difficulties, and problems with communication. She also supports people dealing with postpartum depression, compassion fatigue, and COVID-19 related loss and fatigue.

Her work emphasizes a collaborative process. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to build a working relationship that lets people guide the focus of sessions. She combines that with Solution-Focused techniques to set short-term goals and Cognitive Behavioral tools to address thoughts and behaviors that get in the way of those goals.

Meyer encourages clients to take the lead in sessions and to practice skills between meetings. She aims to help people identify and use their strengths while learning new ways to manage symptoms and relationship patterns. That can include concrete strategies for handling anxiety, steps to improve communication, or planning for career and life changes.

She holds a PhD in Counseling Psychology from Ohio State University and an M.A. in Developmental Psychology. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before scheduling and follow the site's process to match and book a first session.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful working relationship and listening carefully to what matters most to the client. This approach supports people who need help sorting out priorities, making decisions about parenting or relationships, and naming the problems they want to solve.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) works on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It provides concrete tools to change patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, or mood problems and can be useful for managing symptoms and improving daily routines.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will choose methods that fit the client's needs and adjust them over time as goals change.

Session logistics and formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around school, work, and caregiving by removing travel time. They also allow for shorter check-ins when needed and let people choose a setup that works for them, such as audio-only or video, depending on personal preference and technology constraints.
