About Diane

Diane Jensen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Wisconsin with 28 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, trauma and anger. Her practice also includes work around grief, self-esteem, ADHD, career concerns, and coping with life changes.

Diane keeps sessions straightforward and conversational. She is direct and clear in her feedback and focuses on practical steps people can try between meetings. People can expect an approach that centers their concerns and moves at a realistic pace.

Her background includes long experience using cognitive and human-centered methods alongside emotion-focused work. She draws on Client-Centered ideas and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns and try new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Mindfulness techniques are used when emotional regulation or stress tolerance skills are needed.

Diane has worked with a wide range of adult concerns over nearly three decades in Wisconsin. She notes particular experience with adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress and aging-related concerns, attachment struggles, and end-of-life or hospice-related counseling. She also addresses money stress, phobias, social anxiety, and post-traumatic stress.

Sessions are practical and aimed at usable changes rather than abstract theory. Diane encourages clear communication, skill practice, and slow steady progress. International clients may be accepted and sessions are offered in English.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can clarify their own goals; it helps when someone needs straightforward support and clearer self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to test and change those patterns; it is often used for anxiety, anger, and depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that help when feelings escalate or coping resources are strained.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Diane works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's goals and life situation, and she adjusts the plan as skills are practiced and new challenges appear.

The biography indicates she uses video, phone, and text for contact, though you should confirm exact session options when booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins by phone or text when needed, and allow video meetings that support observing nonverbal cues. These formats help people practice skills between sessions and apply them in real life without needing to travel to an office.
