About Diane

Diane Jensen is an LCSW with 28 years of clinical experience, licensed in Wisconsin (WI LCSW 1285 - 123). She has supported people facing a wide array of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship struggles, grief, ADHD, self-esteem and anger, and career and life transitions.

Background and approach

Her long tenure in practice reflects work with diverse issues such as caregiving stress, attachment and adoption-related concerns, hospice and end-of-life counseling, phobias, and post-traumatic stress. Her counseling style is described as warm, interactive, and grounded in respect and compassion.

Diane combines client-centered principles with evidence-informed techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), emotionally-focused therapy (EFT), and mindfulness-based strategies to shape treatment to each person’s needs. She aims to be direct yet caring, helping clients explore patterns, build skills, and navigate practical challenges without relying on stigmatizing labels.

Available for sessions in formats that match client preference, Diane emphasizes collaboration in setting goals and adjusting approaches as progress unfolds. She accepts international clients and conducts work from her Wisconsin practice, bringing nearly three decades of experience to each therapeutic relationship.

Integrating therapeutic approaches into online care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes understanding each person from their perspective and creating a respectful, empathetic space where goals emerge from the client’s priorities. This approach helps build trust and supports work on relationship issues, self-esteem, and coping with life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to change them. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, stress management, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) complements CBT by adding skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when intense emotions are present.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Diane will work with clients to explore their needs, preferences, and goals and will adapt techniques over time so the plan fits the individual rather than forcing a single method. This means clients can try different strategies and adjust focus as progress occurs.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access licensed professionals from varied locations while working together on practical skills and emotional growth.
