How sessions work
How Diane's approaches translate to online work
Diane uses client-centered therapy to keep the focus on the person's experience and priorities. That approach means conversations start from what matters most to the client and build goals at a comfortable pace.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to spot and change thinking patterns that feed anxiety and low mood. CBT often involves homework-like practice between sessions to test new ways of thinking and acting. Dialectical behavior therapy provides practical emotion-regulation skills and distress-tolerance strategies that are useful when emotions feel overwhelming.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Diane collaborates with clients to try methods that fit their goals and comfort level, and she adjusts the plan based on what helps. The therapist-client relationship guides which tools are used and how quickly to introduce them.
