About Diane
Diane Curry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 25 years of experience helping people work through relationship and family concerns, stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. She also addresses issues such as self-esteem, addictions, intimacy-related concerns, career choices, and parenting challenges.
Diane uses a practical, talk-and-action approach. She listens for what clients say and notices what is left unsaid. She asks direct questions and encourages honest self-reflection so clients can focus on what is within their control.
She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also uses client-centered methods to keep sessions focused on the client’s priorities, and motivational interviewing to support people making changes.
Typical sessions include setting clear goals, identifying patterns that keep problems going, and testing small behavior changes between meetings. Diane emphasizes thinking differently about situations to influence behavior and reduce stressors that get in the way of daily life.
Her experience spans vocational and career guidance, communication problems in relationships, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and concerns around abandonment or attachment. She helps people handle practical matters like divorce and separation, parental responsibilities, and problems with impulsivity or isolation.
People working with her can expect straightforward conversation, focused problem solving, and concrete steps to try between sessions. To begin, prospective clients follow the online matching steps to schedule a first meeting.
How Diane applies structured approaches in online sessions
Online work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice thought patterns and test small behavior experiments. CBT sessions focus on concrete steps like tracking thoughts, practicing new responses, and reviewing what changed from week to week.She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize the client’s agenda and motivational interviewing to support readiness for change. Client-centered work means the conversation follows what the person brings, while motivational interviewing helps people weigh pros and cons and find personal reasons to act.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Diane will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative choice guides how sessions are structured and which exercises are recommended.
Because the therapist’s listed session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into busy days, require less travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Speak with the therapist during the matching steps to arrange the session length and format that fit everyday life.
