How her approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small actions toward them even when feelings are difficult. It is useful for anxiety, anger, and situations where someone wants more meaning and direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them, which can reduce anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationship patterns and how early connections affect trust and communication, helping people improve how they relate to others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dianna collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She checks in about what is or isn’t working and adjusts the plan so it fits the client’s life and progress.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers audio only. Live chat offers a shorter check-in option, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection and brief coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep momentum between meetings.
