Background and approach

She uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful patterns and try new ways of coping. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person. Diana listens for what matters most, then helps set small, manageable goals.

She also draws on client-centered and Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas to guide emotional regulation and communication skills. Her background includes work with themes like abandonment, attachment and family of origin issues. She also supports people dealing with caregiving stress, body image concerns, and immigration-related pressures.

The goal is to help people move through painful experiences and rebuild everyday functioning. Therapy with Diana is practical and grounded. Conversations include coping skills, values-driven choices, and body-focused practices when helpful.

Prospective clients can expect straightforward guidance and a focus on clear next steps.

Online therapy using body-aware and evidence-based methods

Somatic-informed work pays attention to how stress and emotion show up in the body. It helps people notice tension, breath, or sensations and use awareness to settle uncomfortable reactions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on values and small committed actions. It helps people live toward what matters even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns and reduce anxiety.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That collaborative process can include trying different techniques and keeping what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work between appointments. The variety of formats also supports ongoing practice of skills and check-ins when life becomes hectic.
