About
Dayna Pitzer is a licensed clinical social worker with 18 years of experience who has built a career helping adults and adolescents navigate a wide range of challenges.
Throughout her career she has practiced in varied settings and in 2016 shifted her focus to working with teenagers involved in the juvenile justice system. Her hospice work deepened her interest in grief, loss, and life transitions, a focus that became personally meaningful while she cared for her mother during a battle with ovarian cancer beginning in 2016.
After her mother passed in November 2019, Dayna stepped back from private practice to focus on her healing while continuing work at the juvenile center. She resumed private practice in August 2020 and began offering services through BetterHelp, and in 2022 she transitioned to working in private practice full time through that service.
Her background also includes inpatient psychiatric care, crisis intervention, hospice support, and experience with chronic medical illness, informing a practical approach to mental health and relationship concerns. Dayna holds the credentials OH LISW I.1451033-SUPV and MA LICSW LICSW128217 - indicating clinical social work licensure and a master’s degree - and she aims to help people find greater peace of mind and the strength to address the challenges they face.
