About Dianne
Dianne Dabney is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth strategies to help people cope and rebuild confidence. Her style is straightforward and centered on the person she is talking with.
Dianne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions. She also draws on the Gottman Method and Client-Centered Therapy when those approaches fit the person's goals.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and aimed at everyday change rather than long lectures. Across five years in practice, she has supported people facing relationship strain, grief, trauma, addiction concerns, parenting stress, and issues like ADHD and bipolar mood challenges. She explains techniques clearly and focuses on skills clients can try between sessions.
Her background includes work with adults and older adults in a range of life stages. Dianne emphasizes teaching practical tools. That can mean thought records from CBT, emotion-focused exercises, or communication strategies inspired by Gottman work.
She helps people test small changes and notice what feels different in daily life. Her sessions are intended to boost coping and strengthen emotional awareness. People who prefer a direct, instructional style alongside empathic listening often find this approach useful.
Dianne practices in Texas as an LPC and conducts sessions in English.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Dianne commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the Gottman Method alongside Client-Centered Therapy. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. The Gottman Method offers practical communication and relationship tools that can help people improve how they interact and solve problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and supporting the person's own goals and pace.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will review your concerns and goals and collaborate on which methods to try first. Sessions are flexible so the plan can shift as progress is made or new issues come up.
Online therapy is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and practicing communication skills. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between sessions or use therapy in brief moments during a busy day. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care while fitting therapy into daily life.
