About Diane
Diane describes her style as collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions focus on talking through current problems, noticing thought patterns and developing everyday habits that make life easier. She adapts her work to each person’s needs and prefers practical steps alongside reflective conversation.
Her approach draws on a mix of well-known methods including cognitive behavioural ideas, acceptance and commitment principles and attachment-aware perspectives. This combination helps with mood, relationship patterns and coping skills for stressful times.
Diane has spent nearly two decades supporting people through loss, trauma, chronic health challenges and career changes. She also brings experience with adoption and foster care issues, body image, caregiving stress and ageing concerns.
Clients can expect straightforward feedback and help turning insights into new habits. Diane works with adults and runs group sessions in her practice when appropriate. She welcomes questions and aims to make the first steps into counselling as clear and simple as possible.

How Diane’s approaches translate to online therapy
ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without fighting them, then choose actions that align with their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and life changes where people want clearer direction. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical ways to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. This approach suits common worries, panic, low mood and habit change. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns and can help when relationship trust and closeness are difficult.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Diane works collaboratively to identify which ideas fit a person’s goals and preferences. Together they can try different techniques and see what helps most over a few sessions.
Practical benefits of online work can include fitting sessions into a busy day and reducing travel time. Some people prefer a shorter check-in or phone option when they need a brief support slot, while others choose video for more face-to-face interaction; the biography does not list specific formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can often adapt exercises and homework for online use so the work stays focused on changing thoughts and everyday habits.
