More about Diana

Hi there!

My name is Diana and I am licensed mental health counselor in the state of Florida. I studied at Florida International University, where I attained my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a Minor in Criminal Justice. Soon after, I obtained my Master of Science in the clinical mental health track. I am passionate about my work and strive to help those who are facing challenging situation(s) and are in need of support, guidance, and treatment.

My specialty is in Mental Health Counseling, particularly working with adult females who have a history of sexual exploitation through human trafficking. These individuals often report a history of complex trauma mostly stemming from childhood; some are also struggling with a drug addiction that requires attention. In my experience, with this population, it is also common to treat personality disorders (i.e. borderline) along with general anxiety, depressive, and mood disorders.

Searching for a therapist can be quite a difficult process, especially when dealing with the challenges we face on a daily basis. I chose to become a therapist in order to help guide you through situations that may be overwhelming; at times we are left with more questions than answers and we need a helping hand. Trust me, you are not alone. I'll be that sense of guidance and source of support throughout the process. I believe clients’ needs are met through personal insight, understanding and empathy. I will provide a safe place for you to be heard without the fear of judgment.

I am extremely passionate about my work and I aim to be a beacon of hope for individuals in need of encouragement and advisement. Using Cognitive-Behavioral, Person-Centered, Solution-Focused and other approaches, we will explore areas of concern and develop ways to create a change in actions and mindsets that have been identified as disruptive.

I believe therapy is a unique experience for each individual. My ultimate goal is to help you feel validated and work with you to thoroughly achieve the progress you wish to attain. I strongly believe that all persons possess the capability of consummating change & making healthy decisions. For now, be proud of yourself for taking the first step to a new journey!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
