Hey there! I’m so proud of you for taking this step in your healing journey—it’s not always easy, but it’s so worth it! I’m Dana Cila, a Licensed Clinical Therapist and the founder of Healing Convos. As a millennial therapist, I know firsthand how overwhelming life can feel when you’re caught up in hustle culture, societal pressures, and the challenges of just adulting. Whether it’s navigating toxic work environments, experiencing friendship breakups, or feeling like you always have to be “on,” it’s exhausting. That’s why I’m here to help you prioritize you. Together, we’ll work on: • Letting go of hustle culture: Embracing rest and redefining success on your terms. • Solo dating: Showing up for yourself and learning how to truly love and prioritize you. • Setting boundaries: Saying no without guilt and protecting your energy. • Walking away from what no longer serves you: Jobs, relationships, habits—whatever it is. • Healing from friendship breakups: Because losing a friend can hurt just as much as any other loss. • Dealing with toxic work environments: Finding ways to protect your mental health while you thrive. • Living the soft life: Embracing joy, peace, and intentional living as acts of self-love. I created Healing Convos to give Millennials and Gen Zers, especially men and women of color, a safe space to explore these challenges and find their voice. My approach is all about empowering you to step away from societal pressures and step into a life that’s aligned with your values. I genuinely believe we’re not defined by our past or our current circumstances. My clients often describe me as authentic, personable, and non-judgmental—someone who sees the real you and is here to walk alongside you as you grow. If you’re ready to stop chasing and start living a life that feels intentional, joyful, and yours, I’m here for you. Let’s create your soft life together—you’ve got this!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other. Think of it as less “formal therapy” and more of a safe space to talk through what brought you here, what’s weighing you down, and what you’re hoping to change. We’ll unpack some of your biggest concerns, touch on your story (because it matters), and start outlining realistic goals together. I know therapy can feel intimidating at first, but I’m here to make it approachable, supportive, and judgment-free. This is your space to heal and grow.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strength as a provider is creating a space where clients feel truly seen, heard, and valued. I bring authenticity and empathy to every session, meeting you exactly where you are—without judgment. As someone who understands the challenges of hustle culture, toxic environments, and societal pressures, I help clients navigate life’s messiness with practical tools and emotional support. I’m also passionate about helping you build confidence in setting boundaries, prioritizing yourself, and creating a life that feels aligned with your values. Whether it’s unpacking tough emotions, breaking free from unhelpful patterns, or embracing rest without guilt, I guide my clients with a mix of warmth, relatability, and encouragement. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling empowered, supported, and one step closer to living your best, most intentional life.
