About Diane
Diane Tomlin is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina. She focuses on helping people manage anger, stress, anxiety, depression, and the ripple effects of trauma and loss. Diane uses practical, down-to-earth strategies so people can cope better day to day.
She blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with cognitive-behavioral techniques and client-centered listening. That means Diane helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, try small behavior changes, and clarify what matters most to them.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Her background includes eight years of professional experience working with concerns like relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, addictions, and sleep problems. Diane also addresses issues such as guilt, shame, isolation, and the aftermath of sexual assault and domestic violence.
She aims to create straightforward plans people can use between sessions. In a typical meeting she listens first, then helps set small, achievable steps. She draws on motivational interviewing and solution-focused approaches to keep momentum and build confidence.
Diane explains tools simply and practices them together with each person. Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. People who want to start can complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule appointments according to availability.
Diane emphasizes steady progress and practical skills that fit real life.

How Diane’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to sit with difficult emotions. This approach can be useful for anger, anxiety, and life changes when someone wants concrete actions tied to personal goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors. It suits issues like panic attacks, sleep disruption, and persistent worry because it teaches tools that can be practiced between sessions.
Diane also uses Client-Centered Therapy techniques, which prioritize listening and reflecting so each person feels heard and understood before moving to strategies and plans.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Diane will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust based on what helps most. The process is collaborative and paced to the individual.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or to fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging make brief check-ins or ongoing support easier between appointments.
