Background and approach

She adapts each plan to a person's situation rather than using one standard method. Diane combines cognitive behavioral techniques with acceptance and commitment ideas to address unhelpful thoughts and to build meaningful action. She also draws on solution-focused strategies to set small, achievable goals and track progress.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to match what the client needs. With ten years as an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor - in Colorado, Diane has worked across a range of concerns including trauma, addiction, depression, and family problems. Her background includes long experience in family therapy settings, though she works with individuals one-on-one.

People who come to Diane can expect straightforward tools, time to tell their story, and a focus on steps that fit daily life. She supports parents and adults through changes like loss, communication struggles, and rebuilding after difficult events.

Approaches that guide online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. This approach can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and situations that feel overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on recognizing patterns of unhelpful thinking and practicing different ways of responding; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the person’s perspective and emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship so people feel heard and can find their own solutions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Diane will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, keeping the process collaborative and flexible.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video works well for in-depth conversations and exercises. Phone sessions can be handy when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging can provide quick check-ins and brief support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy going around school, work, or other responsibilities.
