Dianne is accepting new clients, including international clients, and looks forward to meeting prospective clients to begin collaborative work toward their goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Dianne draws on several established approaches to tailor work to each person's needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying values and committing to meaningful action - it can help with anxiety, low motivation and patterns that keep people stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns in connections and trust, helping with relationship problems, abandonment or parenting concerns. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises empathy, unconditional positive regard and a collaborative therapeutic relationship, creating a supportive space for self-exploration and growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Dianne works collaboratively with clients and with input from licensed professionals when appropriate to identify which methods fit best with a client’s goals, needs and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility - sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, accommodate different comfort levels and maintain continuity when schedules or locations change. These options support consistent, effective work over time while allowing clients to choose the communication style that suits them best.
