Hello! My name is Diana. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC/LMHC) in multiple states, including CT, AK, MA, RI, TX and FL. I earned a Master's Degree in Art Therapy/Mental Health Counseling from Springfield College. I am a registered Art Therapist and Play Therapist, with over 12 years experience working with children, adolescents and adults. I have significant experience working with active duty Service members and military families.
My approach to therapy includes: Empathy and compassion: I believe in creating a genuine connection with my clients and offering unwavering support. Active listening: I'm committed to understanding your perspective and validating your experiences. A collaborative approach: I work closely with my clients to develop personalized strategies that empower them to make positive changes. Use of evidence-based techniques: I utilize proven therapeutic approaches, such as Art Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), to help you develop coping skills and improve your overall well-being.
Our initial session will be a time for us to get to know each other and discuss your concerns. I'll create a safe and welcoming space for you to share your thoughts and feelings without judgment. We'll explore your goals for therapy and develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific needs.
