About Luwana

Luwana Dyer is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) based in Maine who draws on 12 years of experience across independent practice, school and Head Start programs, and collaboration with state and court systems.

Background and approach

She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, and life transitions while also addressing trauma, grief, and intimacy-related concerns. Her background includes supporting those facing fertility and end-of-life issues, coping with abuse or neglect, and working with members of the LGBT community.

Ms. Dyer emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion as cornerstones of care and partners with clients to create practical plans and achievable goals.

Her practice also attends to self-esteem, motivation, relationship and family dynamics, eating and sleeping concerns, parenting challenges, and career-related stress. She approaches the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative effort aimed at increasing functioning and fostering the life a client wants.

Available to work with clients in English and accepting international clients, she offers a range of session formats and adapts her work to individual circumstances. Luwana frames therapy as accessible and worthwhile, inviting prospective clients to begin with a short matching process to find the right fit.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Remote Care



Luwana uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions in ways that are practical and tailored to each person's needs. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and then developing skills to shift those responses; this kind of work is helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Another approach centers on processing and integrating difficult life events and trauma through structured support and coping strategies that reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to clarify goals, try methods that fit their preferences, and adjust techniques over time to achieve the best fit for their needs and circumstances.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing people to receive care from different locations and on varied schedules. These formats support regular contact, make it easier to maintain momentum between sessions, and provide options for clients who need adaptable ways to engage in therapy.
