Background and approach

She also draws on mindfulness and solution-focused methods to help clients find small, steady changes that make daily life easier. Diane works with adults on issues such as self-esteem, motivation, compassion fatigue, and major life transitions. She also supports people navigating LGBT concerns, aging and geriatric issues, codependency, and family of origin patterns.

Sessions look at what is getting in the way now and what can be tried next. Her style is respectful and direct. She tailors conversation and plans to each person’s needs instead of using one fixed method.

Diane encourages practical steps you can use between sessions to track progress and build confidence. Over 29 years of practice have given her experience across many settings and concerns. She helps people clarify life purpose, manage control struggles, and work through midlife and women's issues.

Diane presents therapy as a collaborative effort toward clearer choices and steadier daily functioning.

How Diane’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a plan shaped by the person's own goals. Online sessions use that same listening-first approach to help identify what matters most and set realistic next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thinking patterns and teaches practical tools to change them. Online CBT sessions often include short exercises and homework that can be shared during video calls or by text to reinforce new habits between meetings.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm. These skills transfer well to phone or video sessions and can be practiced during brief text check-ins as reminders throughout the week.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Diane will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels useful. Together they decide whether to emphasize CBT tools, mindfulness practice, or a client-centered pace so the plan fits day-to-day life.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging supports quick check-ins and brief coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting it into work, caregiving, or travel routines.
