About Diana

How Diana works
Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, fertility and pregnancy loss, blended family challenges, and caregiver stress. Her practice draws on person-centred ideas alongside psychodynamic and solution-focused ways of working. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs, whether that means talking through painful memories, identifying small practical steps, or trying techniques to feel steadier day to day.
Diana typically offers short-term counselling, often around six sessions. She aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space where people can explore thoughts and feelings at their own pace. The work is collaborative and paced to the individual's comfort.
People who choose Diana often want straightforward help to manage difficult moments and to find clearer steps forward. She encourages practical change while holding space for the emotions that come up during the process.

Online support options
How Diana's approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard and understood. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps people find their own pace and direction, which can ease anxiety and build confidence. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at past patterns and relationships that affect present feelings; it can help people who want to understand recurring problems and emotional reactions.Deciding on an approach is part of the work. Diana will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what feels helpful. Together they agree which methods to try and can adjust the plan as the work progresses, keeping the process collaborative and practical.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video allows face-to-face conversation when that matters, phone can be simpler and use less bandwidth, live chat gives a quick way to check in, and messaging supports shorter, ongoing contact. These options make therapy more flexible for people balancing work, family or travel and help match the format to what suits each person.
