Dr. Dana McNeil
– The Whinypaluza Podcast with Rebecca Greene Episode 106 The Relationship Expert
Dr. Dana McNeil is one of a small handful of San Diego based Gottman Method couples trained therapists who practice an evidence-based style of couples’ work. She gets to know each couple's strengths and areas of conflict to create individualized treatment goals based on each couple's specific needs.
Dana does specific work with her clients to rebuild trust after an affair, reconnect through addiction recovery, and navigate a relationship affected by mental illness. The average couple waits six years before seeking counseling. They don't have to wait to rediscover friendship, romance, and passion through couples counseling.
Clients find Dana warm, friendly, easy to talk to, accepting, and non-judgmental. She’s here to support her clients, help them rediscover their connection, and coach them on communication skills. Specializing in couples work, LGBTQ clients, addiction recovery, and co-dependency, she provides psychotherapy for couples, families, and individuals.
