About Diana
Diana Barfoot is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Colorado with six years of experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, relationship strain, grief, and related concerns. She also works with issues such as codependency, guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose, and process addictions like gambling or problematic exercise. Diana uses practical talking and planning to help people notice patterns that keep causing pain.
She favors clear, structured approaches. Sessions often focus on what is happening now and on small changes that can be tried between meetings. Diana draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and to test new responses. She pairs that with client-centered listening to prioritize what matters most to each person.
Mindfulness techniques are used to help reduce reactivity and to increase moment-to-moment awareness. Motivational Interviewing helps when people feel stuck about change, and solution-focused methods keep work goal-oriented and brief when appropriate. Diana aims to match tools to the immediate problem and the person's readiness to try them.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. She helps people set small, measurable steps and checks progress together. Sessions emphasize skills people can use between meetings to reduce anxiety, manage cravings, repair strained relationships, or move through grief.
People who want concrete tools, short-term strategies, and regular feedback may find this approach useful. Before booking, confirm current session options and formats to make sure they fit your schedule.
How CBT and related approaches are used in online sessions
Clients can expect work drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. CBT focuses on spotting and testing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety or depressive patterns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and making the client's goals central to planning. Mindfulness Therapy teaches brief attention and breathing skills to lower reactivity and improve moment-to-moment awareness.Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist will review goals, present concerns, and preferences, then suggest approaches to try. This is a collaborative process with adjustments based on what helps most in early sessions.
Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online appointments can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules demand them. They also let people try practical exercises together in real time and bring immediate problems into the session for focused work.
