About Dianne
Dianne Dabney is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults on issues such as anger, stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, and coping with life changes. Her practice also includes concerns like addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, and self-esteem difficulties.
She primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change patterns of thinking that feed intense emotions. She also draws on Client-Centered approaches and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, and integrates techniques from Emotionally-Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method when relationship work is appropriate. Sessions focus on practical strategies and concrete skills rather than abstract theory.
Dianne aims to teach usable tools for managing strong feelings and improving communication. Expect clear, task-oriented sessions where thoughts, behaviors, and coping skills are examined and practiced. She emphasizes small, manageable steps that can be used between meetings.
Her background includes working with adults across a range of life stages and challenges. She reports experience in marriage and family related concerns and in faith-informed counseling, while centering the client’s goals in each session. Dianne frames therapy as applied learning - she helps people try techniques and see what works in everyday life.
Sessions are offered in English and take place in Texas. Prospective clients are asked to confirm current session options before booking and to follow the site’s process for scheduling a first appointment.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the client, helping people feel heard and guiding them toward their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying linkages between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and practicing changes through exercises and homework to reduce anger and anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings concrete emotion-regulation and distress-tolerance skills that are useful when anger becomes overwhelming or when someone wants more control over reactions.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. She will discuss which methods fit the client’s goals and try techniques in session to see what helps. Clients and therapist adjust the plan over time based on what produces useful change.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and keeping momentum between appointments. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to attend from different locations, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy fits into work or family routines.
