About Diane

Diane Stutts is an LPC with 34 years of clinical experience who uses cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and rational-emotive approaches to support people facing major life transitions and everyday challenges.

Background and approach

She focuses on relationship concerns, career changes, self-esteem work, coping with life changes, and ADHD, while also addressing issues such as communication problems, family of origin dynamics, forgiveness, and questions of life purpose. Her training and long practice inform a practical, skills-oriented style aimed at rebuilding confidence and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Clients seeking help with workplace stress, social anxiety, midlife shifts, or the search for renewed self-love will find a collaborative therapist who emphasizes empowerment and clearer thinking.

Diane has worked with a wide age range of adults across different life stages and brings particular experience supporting young adults in college, graduate students, midlife professionals, and older individuals navigating significant transitions. Based in Missouri, she draws on evidence-based techniques blended with a warm, person-centered stance to help clients clarify goals and build lasting coping strategies.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Options



Diane draws from cognitive-behavioral therapy, which helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns to improve mood and functioning. She also uses humanistic methods that emphasize personal growth, self-awareness, and strengthening the therapeutic relationship to support clarity and self-compassion. These evidence-informed techniques are well suited to concerns such as relationship dynamics, self-esteem work, career decisions, and managing attention or focus challenges.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Diane works together with each client to explore which techniques best match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting methods as needed so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy with Diane is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexible ways to receive care around work, school, or other commitments. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access licensed professionals from home or elsewhere in Missouri, while allowing sessions to be scheduled to fit a client's routine.
