About Diane
Diane Jensen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 28 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. She practices from Wisconsin and combines practical talk with a warm, straightforward manner. Clients can expect a respectful, nonjudgmental approach and clear guidance on next steps.
Diane focuses on everyday problems that make life harder - panic and social anxiety, anger, parenting strain, career stress, and the fallout from trauma or loss.
Background and approach
She also supports people coping with caregiving burdens, attachment questions, adoption and foster care issues, and end-of-life concerns. Her work often touches on self-esteem, codependency, and navigating major life changes. In sessions she blends client-centered listening with structured tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and skills from dialectical behavior therapy.
She uses mindfulness and emotionally-focused ideas as needed to help people name feelings and try small changes. The result is a mix of short-term skill building and deeper conversation when it helps. Diane offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can pick what fits their day.
Many sessions emphasize practical coping strategies you can use between meetings, plus homework that feels realistic. She aims to be direct but caring, helping people recognize patterns and test new ways of handling stress. People who reach out will complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
Diane works collaboratively to set goals and adjust the plan as life shifts.
How Diane’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can explore what matters most. It helps clarify values, build self-trust, and guide choices in everyday life. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete exercises to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Diane will work with the person to decide which tools make sense based on goals, preferences, and the problems they want to address. The plan can shift over time as needs change so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls help with deeper conversation and reading facial cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth or movement is limited, live chat can be used for quick check-ins, and text-based messaging supports brief updates or homework reminders. These options provide flexibility for daytime schedules, caregiving duties, or travel while keeping the focus on skills and progress.
