About Diane

Diane McCollum brings 20 years of experience offering counseling to both adults and children in a variety of settings. She views the choice to seek change as an act of bravery and draws on her own experience with counseling to connect with clients who are navigating life transitions. Diane approaches people as individuals who may feel stuck rather than as sick or helpless, and she aims to help them move forward with dignity and respect.

Her work emphasizes a strong therapeutic alliance built on mutual respect, honesty, clear communication, and consistent boundaries. Diane integrates a family systems perspective with a warm, compassionate humanist-spiritual foundation, and she encourages clients to create their own meaningful goals for treatment. Over the years she has supported many people in recovering from trauma and abuse and in gaining a clearer sense of how past events may influence present patterns.

Diane describes therapy as a collaborative learning process in which both therapist and client grow as issues are explored. She strives to understand each person's experience and to reflect the world through the lens of their personal challenges and feelings. Diane holds LPC and LMFT credentials, which mean Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

How Diane's Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being controlled by them and then commit to actions that reflect their values - this approach can be useful for anxiety, depression, and navigating life changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on providing empathy, genuine presence, and nonjudgmental support so clients can find their own solutions - it is especially helpful for building self-esteem and addressing relationship or identity concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and uses practical strategies to change patterns that contribute to distress - it often helps with anxiety, stress, and mood difficulties.

Diane sees finding the right therapeutic approach as a collaborative process. She works with each person to tailor methods to their needs, goals, and preferences so the work feels relevant and manageable. Together the therapist and client evaluate what helps and adjust the plan as progress occurs.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules, reduce the need for travel, and make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions. These options allow licensed professionals to meet clients where they are while supporting consistent, accessible therapy.
