Background and approach

Diseree blends cognitive-behavioral ideas with emotion-focused and acceptance-based tools to create simple, usable strategies. Her background includes long experience with depression, relationship struggles, grief, trauma, and issues linked to identity and sexuality. She has worked across many life stages and with a wide range of concerns such as parenting stress, career challenges, sleep and eating problems, addiction, and ADHD.

That variety informs a flexible, paced style in sessions. In practical terms she helps people set small goals, try new coping skills, and reflect on patterns that keep problems repeating. Conversations address both feelings and everyday choices so change can carry into daily life.

She emphasizes steady progress rather than quick fixes. People who prefer a collaborative, compassionate therapist may find her style fits. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make reaching out easier.

Diseree works from Michigan and provides services in English.

How her approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them and choose actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, low motivation, and major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on identifying and shifting strong emotions in relationships and can help with attachment, intimacy, and communication problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they choose or combine methods and adjust as progress unfolds so the plan fits the individual.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstration. Phone sessions fit when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when written reflection feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and daily demands.
