About David
David Diana is a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 20 years of experience in South Carolina. He meets people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, depressed, or anxious and helps them find clearer direction. His focus is on helping people regain purpose and a sense of forward motion.
He begins by relieving pressing symptoms so daily life becomes more manageable. That work often involves simple exercises and practical steps to reduce stress and improve mood.
Background and approach
Over time the goal is deeper change that fits long-term values and goals. David pays attention to how past experiences shape present reactions. He invites clients to notice the patterns that keep them repeating old responses.
Together they look at thoughts, behavior, and the emotional stories people tell themselves. His approach mixes practical tools with reflective conversation. He uses methods that help a person try out new behaviors and shift unhelpful thinking.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's needs. Many people seek him for issues like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, addiction concerns, parenting stress, career crossroads, and anger. He also supports people facing midlife questions or searching for life purpose.
The work balances short-term relief with longer-term exploration of meaning and growth.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, encourages people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values and small actions that help someone move toward a life they find meaningful and can be useful for anxiety, depression, and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses clear steps to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. It often involves homework and practical exercises to ease symptoms like anxiety, low mood, or anger. Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's experience at the center and relies on listening, empathy, and the client's own pace to guide change.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying a practical CBT exercise for several weeks, then shifting to ACT themes, or blending listening-focused sessions with action-focused work.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow a full conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can support quick check-ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to keep a steady rhythm of sessions while fitting work and life schedules.
