About Diana

Diana Grello is a New York licensed mental health counselor with a focus on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, parenting struggles, grief and trauma.

Background and approach

She draws on thirteen years of clinical experience to support clients facing mood concerns, self-esteem and coping with life changes, as well as compassion fatigue and attachment-related difficulties. Diana emphasizes practical skills alongside emotional understanding to address issues like social anxiety, communication problems, control concerns, and blended family dynamics.

Her approach centers on collaboration and respect for each person’s knowledge of their own life. Diana blends evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with acceptance-oriented practices and attachment-focused perspectives, adapting interventions to meet individual needs.

She encourages clients to build on existing strengths, develop new coping strategies, and clarify life purpose while working through grief, forgiveness, guilt, or isolation. Diana offers services in English from her New York practice and focuses on creating steady, achievable progress toward clearer goals and greater resilience.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Diana frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support people in clarifying values, practicing acceptance of difficult emotions, and committing to meaningful behavioral steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together; the therapist collaborates with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Treatment plans may combine techniques from different models so approaches align with what the client finds most helpful and realistic.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing flexible ways to connect around busy schedules or geographic limits. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, try different session rhythms, and access therapeutic tools between meetings while working toward clearer goals.
