Diane Wells

Diane Wells is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing relationship strain, family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, stress, anxiety, addictions, and depression. She also supports those dealing with abandonment, codependency, communication problems, guilt and shame, aging concerns, avoidant personality patterns, young adult issues, and women's issues. Her approach is warm and interactive and she focuses on listening to each person's story with respect.

Diane emphasizes a narrative outlook, believing everyone carries a story that shapes their choices. She works with clients to name the story and notice which parts still serve them. That process is paired with practical tools to reduce anxious thoughts and take concrete steps toward valued living.

Sessions are tailored to the person sitting across from her. Diane adjusts the conversation and plan to match a client's pace and goals. She aims to empower small changes that add up over time and supports people as they try new behaviors between visits.

With ten years of experience as an LPC in Colorado, Diane draws on a mix of cognitive behavioral strategies, solution-focused thinking, acceptance and commitment ideas, and narrative techniques. Her style stays grounded and human rather than clinical.

People choosing her for help should expect a collaborative, respectful relationship where the client's values guide decisions. She accepts clients in English and is available to work with international clients; prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

How Diane’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Diane often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Narrative Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without being ruled by them and focus on actions that match their values. Narrative Therapy invites clients to tell and reframe their life stories so they can separate themselves from unhelpful patterns and make new choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Diane treats the choice of method as collaborative and will work with each client to see what fits their goals and preferences. She adapts techniques based on how a person responds and the changes they want to make.

Please confirm current session formats before booking because the biography does not specify which online or in-person options are used. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people use video or phone options depending on comfort and bandwidth. Diane will help clients decide how sessions should look so they match daily life and therapeutic goals.
