About Dylan
Dylan Perese is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem, and big life changes. He offers a gentle, accepting presence and makes space for spiritual beliefs and personal meaning to be part of the work.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters most to the client. Dylan blends everyday talk with practical tools like thought tracking and skill practice.
He also encourages journaling between sessions to help people notice patterns and build on small gains. His approach mixes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered methods.
He can use Gottman Method ideas when relationship communication is the focus. These methods are used to reduce distress, improve coping, and strengthen connection to values.
Dylan works from a perspective that values both emotional experience and spiritual life. He offers calm, nonjudgmental support and helps clients put useful strategies into practice.
Sessions aim to be collaborative so people leave with clear next steps. He holds a California LMFT credential and has three years of clinical experience.
Sessions are offered in English and provided through remote formats that fit different schedules and needs.
Approaches that guide online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and finding direction during life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and changing behaviors that keep problems going. It often includes practical exercises and homework to reduce symptoms of mood disorders and improve coping skills.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental relationship and helps people feel heard. It supports self-exploration and can be combined with other methods when addressing grief, self-esteem, or relationship concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dylan collaborates with each person to match techniques to their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. He adjusts methods over time so the plan fits what is actually helping.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to get support around work, caregiving, or other commitments while using the approaches above to make steady progress.
