Diane draws on approaches such as Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to guide her work. Her style is compassionate and straightforward, focused on practical changes and emotional growth.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Diane uses several well-established approaches to guide her work with clients. Imago Relationship Therapy focuses on improving communication and deepening connection by helping partners understand each other's childhood influences and relational needs. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect current relationships and helps people form more steady ways of relating.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the client's experience and encourages self-directed growth through empathetic listening and support. These approaches are used to address relationship dynamics, coping with life transitions, trauma recovery, and emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Diane will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, provide a calmer check-in during a work break, or allow shorter sessions when that suits a client. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, communication skills practice, and trauma-focused work to remote sessions when appropriate.
