I believe healing begins when we feel truly seen and understood, and I strive to create a supportive space where you can explore your experiences, recognize your strengths, and move toward meaningful change.
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 believe therapy is a collaborative journey where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change. My goal is to provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions while building practical skills to improve your daily life.
I work with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, emotional regulation difficulties, relationship challenges, and other everyday struggles that can impact overall well-being.
My approach is compassionate, culturally responsive, and tailored to your individual needs. Using CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and DBT-informed interventions, I help clients build coping skills and move toward lasting change. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or your child, I aim to build a relationship based on trust, authenticity, and hope.
During our first session, we'll get to know each other and discuss what brought you to therapy. I'll ask about your concerns, history, and goals. Together, we'll begin creating a plan that feels realistic and meaningful for you. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and judgment-free, helping you feel comfortable, heard, and empowered from the start.

Family therapy helps families resolve conflicts and strengthen their relationships. It is led by qualified mental health professionals like psychologists, licensed professional counselors (LPCs), and licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs) who have extensive training in family dynamics and group communication.
Thriveworks family therapists in Philadelphia, PA usually begin by asking what everyone’s goals are for family counseling. Family members may need help with very specific issues or with general relationship functioning. But there are three main purposes in family counseling: to educate, to counsel, and to strengthen. Thriveworks also offers online family therapy and in-person services, so you may all meet in an office together or join a video call from your home depending on everyone’s location and availability.
The most effective form of Family therapy will often depend on the family itself, as there are many types of family therapy for therapists to use as they see fit in order to best meet the needs of their clients. However, one of the most commonly used types of family therapy is structural family therapy (SFT). SFT focuses specifically on family dynamics and interactions, looking at how they shape the relationships and structure present in the family. It can be effectively used to treat a variety of concerns.
This answer often looks different to each family that starts family therapy. However, some signs that your family might need to consider family counseling include frequent fights or misunderstandings, constant tension, experiencing loss, behavioral issues, marital issues, divorce, and blended family issues, among others.
In family therapy, therapists will often start by asking questions and assessing individual and family dynamics. From there, they may employ therapeutic techniques such as structured family therapy, CBT, strategic family therapy, and more depending on the present concerns and conflicts. From there, a therapist will work to open lines of communication between family members and facilitate emotional healing and growth.
Family therapy can be incredibly successful, with some studies reporting a success rate of almost 90% for improving participants’ emotional and mental health, and around 66% for improving their physical health.
Thriveworks therapists in Philadelphia, PA offer both online family therapy and in-person family therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Family therapy is usually short term and solution-focused, with most families accomplishing their goals in 12 sessions or fewer. However, it can also last for longer if the probles at hand are more complex — and that’s okay, too.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
