Diane J Gores, LPC

Diane J Gores is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 12 years of experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, relationship concerns, and other life changes. Diane also supports people coping with addictions, grief, trauma and abuse, and workplace or career strain.

Diane uses practical, goal-oriented methods in sessions. She draws on client-centered work to listen and reflect what matters to each person. She combines that with cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Solution-focused techniques help set small, concrete steps that can change daily routines.

Her approach is straightforward. Sessions look at current problems and at what can be changed now. Diane encourages active work between meetings so progress continues outside the session. She is clear that change takes effort and that therapy is not a quick fix.

Clients can expect concise discussion of problems, brainstorming of alternatives, and specific coping tools for anger and stress. Diane also addresses self-esteem, body image, communication problems, and issues tied to identity such as LGBT concerns. She brings experience with veteran and armed forces issues as part of a wider practice.

Diane earned a master’s degree in mental health counseling from Capella University and is licensed as an LPC in Georgia. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. To begin, readers complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment through the provider flow.
