Diane Langston-Schicker, LMFT

Diane Langston-Schicker is a Florida-licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 27 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who face stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma, and anger. Diane focuses on practical steps people can use right away to manage emotions and regain steadiness in daily life.

Her style is straightforward and person-focused. Sessions often look at how thoughts, behaviors, and relationship patterns keep problems going. Diane uses talk-based work alongside skills practice so people can try different ways of responding between meetings.

She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and to build alternative coping strategies. Attachment-based ideas are used to understand how early relationships shape current reactions and expectations. Diane also uses elements of EMDR when trauma memories are getting in the way of present functioning.

Clients who come for anger-related concerns will find a focus on recognizing physical signs, slowing escalation, and developing safer ways to express frustration. For relationship concerns she pays attention to communication patterns and interaction cycles that feed resentment.

Diane works in English and accepts international clients. Her practice emphasizes clear goals, measurable steps, and practical tools such as breathing strategies, behavioral experiments, and communication exercises. To begin she asks people to complete a short questionnaire so sessions can start focused on the most pressing issues.
