Approaches Used Online and How They Help
Diane often draws on client-centered therapy, a collaborative approach that prioritizes the client's perspective and personal goals. In this method she focuses on listening, empathy, and tailoring sessions to what matters most to the individual, which can be especially helpful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, and issues related to self-love and forgiveness.
She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-based approach that helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT can be effective for managing stress, anxiety, motivation challenges, and workplace-related difficulties by teaching concrete strategies for coping and problem solving.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Diane works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning guides how sessions evolve over time.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules and varied lifestyles. These options allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent support across different formats, helping clients access therapy in ways that suit their daily routines.
