About Diana
Diana Grello is a licensed mental health counselor in New York who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship strain. She also supports those dealing with parenting concerns, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue. She speaks English and draws on 13 years of clinical experience to guide conversations and practical next steps.
Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. She treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life and looks for strengths to build on.
How Diana works
Sessions focus on clear skills and small experiments that can be tried between meetings. Diana emphasizes simple tools that reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Diana uses a mix of methods tailored to each person.
She blends acceptance and commitment ideas with cognitive behavior techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and increase valued action. Attachment-informed work helps when past relationships shape present patterns. Dialectical and client-centered elements add emotion regulation and a respectful, nonjudgmental stance.
She aims to make therapy practical. Conversations often include role-play, communication practice, and behavioral tasks to test new approaches. Parents can expect concrete strategies for routines, boundaries, and self-care.
For grief and trauma work she balances pacing with safety and stabilization. Starting therapy begins with a brief matching step and scheduling. Diana works by subscription sessions that can be canceled at any time.
Her focus is on helping people find clear, doable changes that fit their life and values.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small committed steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns show up now and helps people develop healthier ways of relating and communicating. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That process can shift over time as goals change and new challenges appear. Online formats make it easier to access consistent care. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and live chat or text-based messaging can support quick reflections or ongoing check-ins between appointments. These options provide flexibility for fitting therapy into a busy life and for using different tools depending on the moment.Start online instead of waiting
