With on-line therapy, you've come to the right place to find strategies to improve interactions with others in an environment where you are seen and heard. Have you found it to be true, it is easier to confide in someone outside of your social or familial network? You will find we will work toward building a supportive and trusting relationship as we seek to find solutions to manage anxiety, depression, or life change all in the comfort of your own home of office.

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Drawing from my own experience in co-dependency, relationship difficulties, grief, and depression, we can find practical solutions. When feeling more irritated than others realize, we can enhance your communication skills so you can speak with confidence while maintaining self-respect and strengthening your relationships.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I am confident that positive and lasting change is achievable through a combination of personal experience and professional expertise. When you are ready to enhance your health, boost productivity, and gain control over life circumstances, please contact me via phone or email. Let us collaborate on viable solutions together through your cell phone or iPad.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I believe that at times, it is easier to confide in someone outside of your social or familial network. That is why I prioritize building a supportive and trusting relationship with my clients. My goal is to help you develop tools to manage anxiety, depression, or life change.

My treatment methods

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

My primary method is Solution Focused where I assist individuals in meeting their goals in therapy. I like to integrate Solution Focused Brief Treatment with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This approach helps develop the connection between our thinking, emotions, and behaviors. Much like, "Why did I do that?"

My husband passed several years ago (2). Diane has helped me deal with many parts of the grieving process during this time. I'm so very grateful for her suggestions and faith based solutions. Having been married 46 years, actually our life together was over 50 years, with two daughters. That span of time takes in a lot of living. The loss is huge. I'm so grateful to have found Diane for my therapist! She truly has been a blessing!

Diane is supportive, caring, authentic open minded, and she does challenge me in healthy ways. I love her Christian background. Diane is warm, and receptive, yet professional. She really works to help you through your feelings, your aggression, your childhood traumas, and her insight and her genuine honest ways of helping you find answers or find ways to cope have really been instrumental for me.
