Diane Vincent

Diane Vincent is a BACP counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She also helps with issues such as self-esteem, trauma and abuse, social anxiety, and feelings of isolation or loneliness. Diane speaks English and French and works from the United Kingdom. Diane trained in Humanistic Integrative Counselling and holds an Advanced Postgraduate Diploma from CPPD Counselling School. She blends humanistic and psychodynamic ideas in her sessions, offering a warm, non-judgemental space and attention to how past experiences shape present reactions. Conversations tend to focus on what matters most now while also noticing repeating patterns from earlier life. Before qualifying she worked in the creative industries and keeps that background in mind when supporting people with uncertain careers, burnout, or questions of purpose and self-expression. This experience informs a practical, grounded style that aims to make therapy feel relevant to everyday life. Sessions involve listening, gentle reflection and exploring feelings and behaviour together. Diane encourages self-awareness and helps clients test out new ways of relating to themselves and others. She aims to build understanding first, then work towards clearer choices and small, workable changes. With three years of practice, Diane has worked with people from diverse cultural backgrounds and identities.

How Diane's approaches translate to online work

Humanistic therapy focuses on the relationship between client and counsellor. It emphasises empathy, listening and supporting a person’s capacity to understand themselves. This approach can help with low self-esteem, life purpose questions and feeling alone. Psychodynamic ideas look at how earlier experiences shape current feelings and reactions. Talking about patterns that repeat over time can help uncover hidden triggers for anxiety, relationship difficulties and mood problems. These two approaches are often used together to address both immediate concerns and deeper patterns. Finding the best mix is a collaborative process - the therapist will ask about your goals and preferences and adapt techniques to suit the way you like to work. That way you can test what helps without pressure. Because the original profile does not detail session formats, check the listed options before booking to confirm what is offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer speaking from a familiar setting or who need flexibility in scheduling. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the pace and focus of sessions to help you make steady progress.
