Dr. Dai is a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in treating anxiety disorders (generalized anxiety, social anxiety, panic, phobias) and OCD, promoting healthier family relationships, and working with autistic individuals and their families. Anxiety in certain situations is adaptive, but at times it can become draining and can interfere with activities that are enjoyable, meaningful, and necessary. Dr. Dai is passionate about helping individuals live happier lives that are consistent with their goals and values. She does this by providing evidence-based therapy to help clients identify the thoughts and behaviors that contribute to their anxiety, strengthen self-soothing and problem-solving skills, face their fears, and draw on their strengths and resilience to cultivate distress tolerance. Over the past 8 years, Dr. Dai has helped many children, adolescents, and adults experience relief from anxiety. When working with children, she partners with parents to help them identify triggers of their children’s anxiety and strategies that they can use to help their children explore their world with confidence. Dr. Dai also has clinical and research experience working with autistic individuals and their families. She has helped autistic individuals reduce anxiety, improve mood, and bolster social skills and relationships. She also supports caregivers of recently diagnosed autistic children. In addition to working with individuals, Dr. Dai enjoys providing family therapy to help families navigate transitions, improve communication, and experience closer connections.
