About Dylan
Dylan Perese is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with three years of clinical experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Dylan also lists areas like communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and life purpose among his focus areas.
He uses a mix of evidence-based approaches alongside room to discuss spiritual or existential concerns as they come up. Sessions often include practical exercises and reflective practices such as journaling between meetings to track patterns and insights. Conversations are direct and focused on what matters now, whether that is coping skills, decision points, or repairing communication.
In sessions he draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered methods, and the Gottman Method. These approaches guide concrete tools for emotion regulation, values-based choices, and relationship skills. He weaves in a client's spiritual or intuitive experiences when the client raises them, rather than imposing any spiritual framework.
People who contact him can expect short-term, skills-focused work when useful, and longer-term exploration when a deeper look feels necessary. He encourages simple practices between sessions to consolidate new ways of coping. His stated aim is practical support for the decisions and painful experiences that follow life transitions.
Dylan offers therapy in English and does not work with international clients. Prospective clients in California should confirm current session options before booking and follow the site instructions to begin the matching process.
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
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 is useful when someone feels adrift after a change in work, relationships, or health. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety or low mood. It often involves concrete homework and tracking to change daily routines.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods make the most sense. That collaborative decision can change over time as needs shift or a different focus is needed.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. They also let people use practices like in-session coaching and between-session journaling in the flow of everyday life. Licensed professionals and therapists often adapt exercises so they work well in remote meetings, and Dylan will help tailor the approach to what fits a client's routine and goals.
