Background and approach

Conversations focus on what is happening now and what can change next. Diane has a master’s degree in mental health counseling from Capella University and 12 years of combined experience in mental health. Her background includes work with people facing depression, grief, trauma, and relationship strain, as well as workplace and identity-related concerns.

She brings that variety to her online practice. In a typical session she helps people notice patterns of thought and behavior, try new strategies between visits, and track what works. She is direct about the need for effort and follow-through, and she helps set realistic, step-by-step plans.

Diane offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging for flexible care. She accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step connect a person to her practice.

How Diane’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s experience. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what is said, and supports the person in finding their own solutions to issues like anxiety, self-esteem, or identity concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It teaches practical skills to test unhelpful thoughts, try different behaviors, and reduce symptoms such as worry or low mood through small changes.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on concrete goals and immediate next steps. It helps people identify strengths and build quick, manageable strategies for problems such as stress, workplace issues, or relationship communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Diane will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean combining elements of different approaches and adjusting the plan as progress is tracked.

Online formats offer useful flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper interaction. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short updates, brief coaching, or moments when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options help fit therapy into busy days and across time zones.
