About Dianne

Dianne Seibel is an LCMFT licensed in Kansas with two decades of clinical experience helping people navigate a wide range of life challenges.

Background and approach

She works with clients facing relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar, anxiety and stress, addictions, grief, parenting difficulties, intimacy issues, ADHD, and related struggles including compassion fatigue and career transitions.

Her additional focus areas include topics like adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress, and kink and alternative sexual culture. Her style is warm, interactive, and grounded in respect and compassion.

She blends evidence-informed strategies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with attachment-focused and client-centered perspectives, integrating tools from DBT and emotionally focused approaches as appropriate. Dianne tailors conversations and treatment plans to each person’s needs rather than relying on labels, aiming to support practical coping skills alongside deeper relational and emotional work.

She accepts clients in English and works with both local and international clients, offering flexible online formats to accommodate different schedules and preferences.

Online approaches that combine skill-building and connection

Many clients benefit from a blend of approaches that teach concrete skills while addressing relational patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress; it often includes practical exercises and goal-oriented homework. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to patterns formed in relationships and helps people understand and shift how they connect with others, which is useful for intimacy issues, family dynamics, and attachment concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and usually happens collaboratively. The therapist will work with each client to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and together they will decide whether CBT, attachment-focused work, or a mixture of methods will best support the person’s aims.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or health needs. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care across locations and schedules, enabling ongoing skill practice, check-ins, and therapeutic conversations from wherever clients are able to join.
