About Diana

Diana Norton is an LCSW with 35 years of clinical experience who blends compassionate, client-centered work with evidence-based techniques to help people navigate complex life challenges.

Background and approach

She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to address conditions like depression, anxiety, grief, relationship difficulty, and ADHD, tailoring strategies to each person’s situation. Her practice emphasizes understanding how patterns of thought, emotion, and behavior interact, and she partners with clients to develop practical skills for coping, communication, and emotional regulation.

Diana also brings experience supporting issues related to trauma and abuse, addictions, intimacy concerns, eating and body image, career stress, and caregiving strains. She offers thoughtful guidance around transitions, chronic health challenges, and identity-related concerns including LGBT matters.

Based in Indiana, Diana provides a steady, nonjudgmental presence while helping clients identify strengths and build resilience. Her work combines focused problem-solving with attention to deeper emotional bonds and interpersonal patterns, aiming to help people find clearer priorities and sustainable ways to move forward.

How approaches like CBT and client-centered work translate online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and partnering with the client to explore values and goals; in practice this means the therapist creates space for clients to describe their experience and helps them clarify what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and then teaches practical techniques to shift those patterns, often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, making it a helpful option for people struggling with intense emotions and relationship conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process rather than a one-time choice. The therapist works collaboratively with each client to determine which combination of methods best fits their needs, goals, and personal style, and adapts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for scheduling and the ability to maintain continuity of care from different locations. These options can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, address access barriers, and continue work between meetings through messaging when appropriate.
