Diane Sullivan is a qualified counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of practice. She works from a person-centred approach and aims to create a respectful, sensitive space for people facing difficult life events. Diane helps people facing relationship breakdowns and separation.

She supports those dealing with infidelity, divorce and family conflict. She also talks with people coping with grief, bereavement and major life changes. She has experience supporting people with anxiety, depression and low mood.

Background and approach

Addiction, compassion fatigue and work-related strain are also within her focus. Diane is familiar with issues around intimacy, body image and sexual diversity including BDSM and kink culture. Diane also works with people affected by trauma and abuse, including those who have had near-death experiences related to illness or medical events.

She helps people manage anger, dissociation and attachment or abandonment concerns. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs. Diane listens, reflects and helps clients find practical steps they can try between sessions.

Her approach aims to put the person’s experience at the centre and move at a pace that feels manageable. People come for short-term help with a specific problem or for longer work on deeper patterns. Diane welcomes questions about how she works and what a first session will look like.

Person-centred care online and what it looks like

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what they hear and helps people find their own solutions. This approach suits worries about relationships, grief and life changes where being heard matters more than techniques.

Diane frames conversations around each person’s goals and preferences. Deciding what feels helpful is a collaborative process and she will check in regularly to adjust the focus. Together they identify small steps to try between sessions and track what is changing.

Online work can be more flexible than in-person appointments. Video calls let people speak face to face and use visual cues, phone sessions can fit into a shorter break and need less bandwidth, while live chat or text-based messaging provide a way to check in without being on camera. These options make it easier to arrange sessions around work, family and other commitments while still receiving regular therapeutic support.
