About Diane
Diane Paseos helps people handle stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and big life changes. She is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, with 25 years of experience. Her work also covers caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, sleep problems, low self-esteem, career concerns, and mood disorders.
Her style is warm and straightforward. Sessions focus on what is getting in the way and on small, useful steps you can try between meetings. Diane aims to meet each person where they are and to tailor the pace and focus to real life demands.
Background and approach
She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy alongside mindfulness and solution-focused strategies. These approaches are used to help people notice unhelpful patterns, try new behaviors, and build daily habits that reduce distress. Motivational interviewing is woven in when people want help making tough changes.
Diane has spent many years working with people facing chronic illness, aging-related concerns, hospice and end-of-life questions, and caregiver burden. She also supports those dealing with isolation, social anxiety, seasonal mood changes, and bipolar disorder symptoms. Sessions are offered from Massachusetts and conducted in English.

Online support
How Diane uses therapy methods online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values; it is useful for anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person leads the work and the therapist listens and reflects to support growth.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Diane will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then use elements from these approaches together to fit the situation. The plan is collaborative and can change as needs shift.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video is useful for fuller conversation and visual cues. Phone calls can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text messaging let people share brief updates or work through ideas between sessions. These formats give flexibility for busy lives and different comfort levels.
