About Diana

Diana Hartwig is a licensed independent social worker in Ohio who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma, and a wide range of other concerns. She emphasizes respect and a strengths-based stance, tailoring care to each person's circumstances and priorities.

Background and approach

With six years of professional experience, Diana applies practical tools alongside empathetic listening to support clients as they work toward clearer goals and better coping. Her approach blends cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered and mindfulness strategies, and she may also draw on motivational interviewing or narrative methods when appropriate.

Diana's background includes focused experience with grief and loss, and she has worked with clients facing caregiving responsibilities, chronic illness, codependency, and issues such as hoarding, compassion fatigue, and end-of-life concerns.

She offers flexible session formats to accommodate different needs and schedules, and she invites people to take the first step when they are ready to explore change and growth.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Many clients find benefit from a combination of practical strategies and empathic listening. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns in thoughts and behaviors and testing new ways of responding; it is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client’s perspective and personal strengths, offering a supportive environment where goals are collaboratively defined and explored. Mindfulness Therapy incorporates present-moment awareness and techniques to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, which can help with stress, grief, and chronic pain.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals and then adapt methods accordingly rather than relying on a single technique. This cooperative stance helps shape a treatment plan that feels useful and realistic for daily life.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and situations. These options can make it easier to attend sessions from home, manage ongoing commitments, and maintain continuity of care when life requires adaptability. Licensed professionals aim to make the therapeutic work accessible and practical through the format that fits the client best.
