Dayna Pizzigoni

Dayna Pizzigoni, PhD, LPC, is a compassionate therapist who believes that psychotherapy can illuminate the darkness, instill hope in the face of fear, and empower individuals who feel stuck in their journeys. She sees her role as a co-journeyer alongside her clients, guiding them through healing toward a healthier and fulfilling life. Her therapeutic style emphasizes reflective and empathetic listening, fostering self-acceptance and awareness, encouraging cognitive flexibility, and affirming the strengths of those she works with. Dayna has specialized experience dealing with eating disorders, body image issues through a Health at Every Size (HAES) perspective, and the effects of loved ones' addictions and alcoholism. She is keenly aware of how culture, class, education, and power dynamics influence relationships. With a Doctorate in Counselor Education and Supervision, Dayna focuses on integrating religion and spirituality into counseling through the lens of the psychology of religion and spirituality. She enjoys working with individuals of faith and recognizes the stigma they often encounter, as well as those exploring spirituality as they heal from emotional wounds. Dayna understands that seeking help requires immense courage. Having experienced both sides of the therapy process, she is dedicated to holding hope for her clients and inviting them to embrace a deeper sense of freedom in their identities and experiences.
