About Diane
Diane Wells is an LPC who helps people facing relationship strain, grief, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and addictions. She works with issues like codependency, communication problems, abandonment, and concerns that arise during young adulthood and later life. Her tone is warm and interactive and she focuses on respectful conversation that helps people take next steps.
Her work grows from a narrative outlook that treats a person's story as central. She listens for themes in how people describe their lives. From there she tailors short-term goals and practical steps that fit each person's situation.
Diane draws on several methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding. She also uses client-centered and solution-focused ideas to keep therapy focused on what matters most to the client.
With ten years as a licensed professional counselor, she blends direct conversation with gentle reflection. Sessions aim to increase awareness, build coping skills, and support clearer communication. Diane encourages clients to try small experiments between sessions so progress is noticeable.
People who prefer a collaborative, story-based approach will find her practical and respectful. She emphasizes real-world steps and ongoing adjustment of the plan as needs change.
How Diane’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions aligned with personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and decisions tied to relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying concrete behavior changes to reduce symptoms like depression or worry. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and respect, letting the client's experience guide the pace and direction of sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Diane works collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals and preferences. She adjusts plans over time and encourages small experiments between sessions to see what helps most.
