About Diane

Diane Jensen is a licensed clinical social worker with 28 years of practice in Wisconsin. She draws on a broad clinical background to support people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, ADHD, anger, and self-esteem struggles.

Background and approach

Her training includes cognitive behavioral therapy along with client-centered, dialectical behavior, emotionally-focused, and mindfulness approaches, and she adapts methods to the needs presented by each person. Her style is described as warm, interactive, and straightforward; she approaches clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion while avoiding stigmatizing labels.

Diane aims to walk alongside clients through difficult transitions and to help them learn practical skills and new perspectives. She is comfortable using video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to meet clients in the format that best fits their needs, and she works with people who connect from both inside and outside the United States.

How Diane Uses Evidence-Informed Approaches Online



Diane frequently draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, phobias, and stress. She also uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, compassionate space where a persons priorities steer the work and emotional understanding is emphasized. These approaches are adapted to the concerns at hand and guide concrete strategies as well as deeper exploration when appropriate.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist and client work together to clarify goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels most useful. Diane aims to blend skill-building with empathic support so that the chosen methods reflect the clients needs, values, and preferences rather than a one-size-fits-all model.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options support flexibility in scheduling, let clients choose the communication style they prefer, and make it possible to continue meaningful therapeutic work without needing to travel to an office.
