Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care
Diana commonly draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values, accept difficult feelings, and take committed action toward meaningful goals - it is often helpful for persistent anxiety, avoidance, and navigating life changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathy, active listening, and supporting the person’s own growth, which can be especially useful for identity development, self-esteem, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses the links between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, offering concrete tools to reduce symptoms of depression, manage anxiety, and challenge unhelpful thinking patterns.Diana approaches treatment collaboratively and recognizes that finding the right therapeutic method is part of the process. She works with each person to identify priorities, trial approaches, and adjust strategies based on goals, preferences, and what proves most helpful in sessions.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit care into busy lives and to maintain continuity across locations. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, allow ongoing connection between appointments, and expand access to licensed professionals and therapists who can support a range of concerns.
