About Dianna

Dianna Zuniga is a Licensed Independent Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in California. She brings 21 years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on helping people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and other life challenges. She offers care in both English and Spanish.

Dianna uses clear, skills-based work in sessions. She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also uses trauma-focused methods and mindfulness practices to help people cope after painful events.

Background and approach

Solution-focused ideas help keep therapy practical and goal-directed. Clients can expect a warm, respectful approach. Dianna aims to meet people where they are and build skills they can use between sessions.

She emphasizes simple, repeatable tools for handling strong feelings and daily pressures. Her background includes work in mental health clinics, substance abuse programs, and public and personal schools. That variety informs her practical style and ability to adapt techniques to different situations.

Sessions are offered through a subscription model and can be scheduled around the client’s needs. People looking to begin fill out a short matching questionnaire to connect and arrange sessions.

How her approaches work online

Dianna commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy along with mindfulness practice. CBT helps people notice and change thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and anger. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on working through the effects of painful experiences and building coping strategies after those events. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention and calm through simple breathing and present-moment exercises that reduce reactivity. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then choose or blend methods to fit those needs. This is a collaborative process that can change as progress is made. Online sessions offer practical benefits for people with busy lives. Video calls let therapists observe nonverbal cues and run exercises that need face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth or being on camera is a concern, and they work well for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to get support between sessions, use brief coping prompts, or check in after practicing a new skill. These formats give flexibility to fit therapy into work, family, and everyday routines.
