About Diane

Diane Winn-Clouse brings a client-centered and cognitive behavioral approach to therapy, blending practical skills with empathic support to help people navigate life transitions and relationship challenges.

Background and approach

She draws on 25 years of practice as an LPC to offer focused work on stress, anxiety, mood concerns, grief, self-esteem, and intimacy-related issues, while also addressing eating and sleeping problems, parenting and career concerns, and compassion fatigue.

Her style integrates modalities such as Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused strategies to tailor interventions for blended family issues, body image and codependency concerns, infidelity and commitment struggles, obsessive-compulsive patterns, phobias, postpartum depression, and seasonal affective disorder.

Diane also brings experience with divorce and separation, midlife transitions, and non-monogamous relationship dynamics, emphasizing behavioral and cognitive tools alongside growth-oriented coaching. Based in Colorado and fluent in English and French, she combines clinical practice with an academic background in counseling psychology and more than a decade teaching behavioral and social science courses.

Diane frames therapy as a collaborative process, inviting clients to explore change with curiosity, practical techniques, and steady professional support.

Approaches that guide online sessions



Diane commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy when working with clients online. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing concrete skills to shift patterns related to anxiety, mood, obsessions, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental stance that helps clients explore feelings and values while the therapist offers empathy and acceptance to support personal growth.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Diane aims to learn about a person’s goals, strengths, and preferences during early sessions and then adapts methods from CBT, client-centered work, or other complementary strategies to fit those needs. The result is a tailored plan that balances practical techniques with compassionate, person-focused support.

Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into a busy life or when in-person visits aren’t practical. These formats allow for consistent continuity of care and access to licensed professionals from different locations while retaining the collaborative, skills-based focus of her therapeutic work.
