About Diana
Diana Simpson is a BACP-accredited counsellor in the United Kingdom with 21 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, parenting pressures, bereavement and anger. Her background covers a wide range of life changes and emotional struggles.
She draws on approaches such as Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy and Internal Family Systems. In sessions she listens to what matters most and helps people clarify specific goals. Conversations are practical and grounded in the client’s everyday life.
Diana has academic training that includes a BA (Hons) in psychology and counselling studies and a master’s degree in psychology. Her work has included family systems and trauma-related issues, and she has additional training in family systems trauma.
Clients often bring topics like grief, intimacy difficulties, codependency and career stress. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment and blended family problems. Sessions may cover skills for managing strong emotions and changes in relationships.
Her style is interactive and goal-focused. She works with people to identify unhelpful patterns, test new ways of behaving and build practical coping strategies. The emphasis is on clear steps that fit into daily life rather than lengthy theory discussions.
To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Diana uses therapy approaches online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s perspective. It helps people feel heard and supports clearer thinking about problems such as relationship strain or parenting stress.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical steps to change patterns. It is often used for anxiety, anger and low mood and encourages short exercises people can try between sessions.
Finding the best approach is collaborative. Diana will discuss goals, preferences and what has worked before, and together they will try methods that suit the person’s needs. That means checking in and adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.
If you want to use online sessions, please confirm which session formats are offered before booking. Practical benefits can include fitting sessions around work or caregiving, using shorter check-ins when time is tight, or choosing phone or video depending on bandwidth and comfort. These practical choices can make it easier to keep therapy happening week to week.
