About Diane

Diane Malone Kudolo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 19 years of clinical experience. She has worked with people facing depression, trauma, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and anger. Diane also helps clients dealing with addictions, parenting challenges, attention issues, and life transitions.

Her background includes long-term work with both youth and adults who have faced a range of emotional struggles. Diane focuses on practical, here-and-now goals. She helps people notice thinking patterns, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and make clearer choices about how to act.

Sessions emphasize listening and straightforward feedback. Diane uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive techniques to address thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on emotion-focused work to help people name and respond to strong feelings.

People come to her for help with relationship problems, intimacy concerns, blended family issues, and adoption or foster care related stress. She also supports those coping with grief, career stress, codependency, hoarding, and compassion fatigue.

Her approach is practical and active. Diane aims to help clients get in touch with themselves, recognize options, and take steps that improve daily life. She offers respect and genuine attention while working through immediate concerns.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Diane integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in most work with clients. Client-centered therapy focuses on attentive listening and helping people clarify their own goals and values. Cognitive behavioral therapy addresses the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical ways to change unhelpful patterns.

She also uses emotion-focused techniques that help name strong feelings and work through them in session. Those methods can help with relationship strain, anger that builds up over time, and responses to loss or trauma. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the early work together; Diane will discuss goals and preferences and recommend what to try first in collaboration with the client.

If you plan to meet online, confirm the session formats offered before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make scheduling easier, help fit brief check-ins into a workday, and allow people to attend without travel. A therapist can adapt cognitive and emotion-focused exercises to an online setting so that the work stays practical and relevant to daily life.
