About Diane
Diane Jensen is a licensed clinical social worker with 28 years of experience helping people through hard times. She practices from Wisconsin and works with adults facing issues like anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, anger, relationship and parenting concerns. Diane aims to be straightforward and caring in sessions.
Her style is warm and interactive. She listens without judgment and speaks in plain terms. Sessions often focus on practical skills people can use between meetings.
Background and approach
Diane tailors conversations to each person’s situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Diane uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. She draws on client-centered methods to build trust, cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and emotion-focused ideas to deepen understanding of feelings.
Mindfulness and DBT skills are available when coping and regulation skills are useful. In a typical session she helps people identify patterns, practice new skills, and set small goals. She encourages honest, direct conversation and works at the client’s pace.
For someone dealing with anger or stress, sessions might include strategies to notice triggers and calm down before reacting. Diane offers video, phone, chat, and text options so people can choose what fits their life. She supports international clients and conducts work in English.

Therapeutic approaches for online work and coping skills
Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what they say, and helps them feel heard so they can explore problems at their own pace.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In online sessions this often means spotting unhelpful thinking patterns, trying small behavioral changes, and using homework to practice new responses to stress or anger.
Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, provides concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance. That can include breathing and grounding techniques, emotion regulation skills, and tools for handling interpersonal stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust techniques over time in a collaborative way.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video visits work well for connecting visually and practicing skills in real time. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a calmer check-in is needed. Chat and text messaging let clients share short updates, ask quick questions, or do brief coaching between longer sessions. These options aim to make scheduling easier and therapy more accessible.
