More about Dianne

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

My primary focus is using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help my clients process their thoughts, feelings and emotions. Though this is my primary counseling style, I use an eclectic range of therapy. Including but not limited to Solution Focus Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Reality Therapy. I have experience in working with adolescents, adults and the elderly. It is my passion and purpose to help equip people to become the best version of themselves. I apply my educational knowledge as a Clinical Mental Health Therapist by teaching practical applications. I am grateful to say I have been able to help people get through their most difficult times and life circumstances. I believe my desire to help people has given me a great level of success. I have many years of experience in marriage counseling, family counseling as well as christian counseling. My qualifications include a Masters Degree in Clinical Mental Health from the University of Houston-Victoria, obtaining my National Certified Counselor certification and a Doctrine Degree in Theology. Through my experience I have been able to assist a diverse group of people in dealing with life circumstances. This has now equipped me with Evidence-Based Therapeutic Counseling tools to further advance my skills as a Counselor. I know that I am capable of helping people live their best lives and welcome the opportunity to prove it!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
