About Diana
Diana Sebzda welcomes people who are struggling with loss, change, or heavy emotions. She writes plainly and listens closely so clients can name what feels hard. Diana works with adults facing grief, stress, anxiety, depression, or career and life crossroads.
She practices as an LPC in New Jersey and brings 18 years of counseling experience to sessions. Diana focuses on the everyday parts of coping. She helps people notice thoughts that get stuck, try small changes, and build routines that feel manageable.
Background and approach
She also addresses issues tied to grief, such as disenfranchised loss, spiritual questions, and the ripple effects on relationships and work. Her background centers on grief and end-of-life issues, including hospice, bereavement, and caregiver stress. Over time she added supports for compassion fatigue, addiction concerns, sleep problems, guilt and shame, and meaning after loss.
She also offers coaching for career and life transitions when clients want practical next steps. Diana blends several approaches to match each person's needs. She uses client-centered listening to create space, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking, and mindfulness to calm intense emotions.
Narrative ideas help people reframe their life story after major change. Sessions are conversational and action-oriented. People leave with clearer next steps, coping tools to try between visits, and a plan to test what feels useful.
Diana accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English from her New Jersey practice.
Approaches That Fit Online Counseling
Diana commonly blends client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to guide online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening without judgment and helping people name what matters most, which is useful for grief, life changes, and relationship stress. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers simple exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting when anxiety or depression feels overwhelming.Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try methods that match the client’s needs, and adjust the plan as progress and feedback emerge. This collaborative style lets clients shape the work and choose tools that feel doable between sessions.
Online formats allow flexible ways to connect. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging helps people reflect in writing. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life and to continue work even when travel or schedules change.
