Diana is a wonderful listening ear but she also pushes you to do better too. I love that out of anyone but thank you for pushing me in the worst months to pull through and being there.

So far, Diana has helped me dig a lot deeper than I expected. She asked me what I wanted out of therapy & it’s actually coming together. Thanks for allowing me to challenge myself Diana!

Diana has been a great source of comfort and support. Her support does not come in the form of blind validation but challenges me to take step back and view my situation as is and make the best decision based on viewing the issue at hand from different perspectives. She has celebrated my small and big wins with me, which provides me with the confidence that I am heading in the right direction, even if the journey can be difficult.
