About Diana
Diana Gunner works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self‑esteem and depression, as well as relationship and parenting concerns. She uses person‑centred methods alongside psychodynamic and solution‑focused ideas to help people talk through feelings and find practical ways to cope. Diana is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years' experience.
Diana aims to help people put feelings into words and understand patterns in their thoughts and actions. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual, whether that is short‑term coping techniques or exploring longer‑standing issues. She has experience supporting people affected by bereavement, baby loss, infertility and menopause.
Her practice draws on client‑centred work that prioritises the person's perspective, psychodynamic thinking that looks at past relationships and patterns, and solution‑focused strategies for practical change. These approaches are used flexibly according to the person's aims and current difficulties.
Diana offers short‑term counselling, typically six sessions, for those wanting a structured block of support. She also works with longer concerns when that suits the client. Her work includes addressing eating and food‑related issues, ADHD, anger and coping with life changes.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary with location. International clients in English are accepted. To start, people are asked to select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Client‑centred work places the person's experience at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens without directing and helps the person to make sense of their feelings and priorities, which suits issues such as low self‑esteem or relationship concerns.
Psychodynamic ideas look at how past relationships and patterns affect current behaviour. This can help when people want to understand recurring difficulties, such as attachment problems or long‑standing emotional patterns.
Solution‑focused therapy concentrates on practical steps and small changes that can be tried between sessions. It is useful for people who want concrete coping strategies for stress, anxiety or life transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and adapt methods as those needs become clearer.
The practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions more easily around work and family commitments and reducing travel time. If you need clarity on available session formats, please confirm the current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to keep regular appointments and to use short blocks of time for focused work.
