About Diana
Diana Soto is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 17 years of experience who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. She offers steady, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or burned out. Diana speaks plainly and listens closely to understand what matters most to each person who reaches out.
Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions aim to identify small, useful changes that make daily life easier.
Background and approach
She uses evidence-based tools to address mood, worry, anger, and parenting challenges while honoring each person’s strengths and values. Diana draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, non-judgmental space. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot thought patterns that fuel stress and depression.
Mindfulness techniques are incorporated to help manage strong emotions and build calm in tense moments. Across 17 years of practice Diana has supported people dealing with grief, caregiving strain, postpartum concerns, body image worries, and issues tied to divorce or domestic violence. She also brings experience with multicultural concerns and end-of-life stressors in hospice contexts.
Her work includes helping people cope with dissociation, self-harm thoughts, and feelings of isolation. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Diana aims to meet each person where they are and work at a pace that feels right for them.
Practical approaches for online family and parenting support
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and making space for a person to set their own goals; it helps when someone needs understanding and steady support. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior and offers straightforward skills to reduce anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful reactions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and breathing practices to manage strong emotions and lower stress in the moment.Diana views finding the right approach as a team effort. She will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. The aim is to combine methods in ways that feel useful and realistic for everyday life.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, respond to urgent concerns between appointments, and maintain continuity when life is unpredictable. Many people find that having multiple ways to connect helps them stay engaged and practice new skills between sessions.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
