Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationship patterns affect emotions and behavior. It helps people understand attachment needs and work through patterns that can create anxiety or distance in close relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes respect, empathy, and collaboration - the therapist offers a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients set the pace and priorities for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and teaches practical strategies to shift thinking and behaviors that maintain stress or low mood.



Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Diane works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods best fit their goals, preferences, and current life situation, adjusting the plan as needed to support progress.



Online therapy with Diane offers flexible options including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make scheduling easier around work, caregiving, or other obligations and allow therapists and clients to maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not possible. Licensed professionals can adapt these modalities to deliver effective, accessible support that fits a client’s daily life.
