About Dianne
Dianne Taylor is a counsellor who focuses on helping people who are carrying heavy emotional burdens. She works with adults facing trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression and struggles with self‑esteem. Her style aims to make someone feel listened to and understood from the first conversation.
She trained as a Person Centred counsellor and uses that approach to create a calm, non‑judgemental space. Dianne combines this with practical tools drawn from cognitive behavioural ideas and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people manage thoughts and build new habits.
Background and approach
Over seven years of work in the charity sector and independent practice, she has supported people dealing with grief, relationship difficulties, parenting strain, compassion fatigue and issues linked to childhood experiences. She also helps with sleep and eating concerns, anger, career stress and symptoms often seen with ADHD and bipolar presentations. Sessions are tailored to each person.
Dianne listens first, then agrees simple steps and coping strategies together. She uses skills, exercises and gentle reflection so people can start to feel steadier between sessions. Dianne works with international clients and runs one‑to‑one sessions online and by phone.
She asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire to match needs, then schedules appointments in line with availability. Her NCPS credential is shown as part of her professional listing.

How Dianne uses different approaches online
Her practice draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment‑Based ideas alongside a person centred way of working. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and it supports choosing actions that match personal values. Attachment‑Based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people develop safer ways of relating to themselves and others.Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. Dianne will listen to a person’s goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try. This is collaborative rather than fixed, so methods are adjusted as progress and needs become clearer.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video sessions let people meet face to face when that feels helpful. Phone appointments can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check‑in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing between sessions or need flexible timing. These options make therapy easier to fit around work, caring duties and travel.
