About Diane
Diane Haskill is a Florida-licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 25 years of experience helping adults who are juggling stress at home and relationships. She focuses on common difficulties such as anxiety, depression, parenting strain, grief, addiction, and problems with intimacy and communication. Diane works plainly and directly, helping people name the problem and make a practical plan for change.
She often meets people during hard stretches and begins by listening and mapping immediate concerns. Diane uses client-centered principles to keep the conversation focused on the person's priorities. She also draws on cognitive behavioral approaches to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and to try small, doable changes.
Sessions usually include clear steps and strategies. Diane talks through options, offers tools for coping, and supports decision-making about next steps. She pays attention to family-of-origin patterns, codependency, and issues around abandonment when those come up.
Her background includes long experience with substance and alcohol problems, domestic violence, and trauma and abuse. She also helps people manage anger, sleeping problems, career stress, and the practical burdens of parenting. Diane frames therapy as problem-solving you can use between sessions.
In work with grief and loss she combines listening with concrete coping ideas. With relationship and communication difficulties she focuses on clearer boundaries and wording that can be tried between visits. Her style is straightforward and action oriented, aimed at reducing daily strain and creating manageable change.
How sessions work
How Diane integrates approach and online work
Client-centered therapy puts the person's priorities first. Diane listens to what matters most and shapes sessions around those concerns, helping people decide which areas to tackle first.Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying thought patterns and everyday behaviors that keep problems going. Diane uses CBT tools to try small changes between sessions, which can help with anxiety, sleep, mood, and coping with cravings or urges.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Diane will work with the client to test methods, adjust what isn’t helping, and agree on practical goals. This means trying a strategy for a few sessions and changing course if needed.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, since the biography does not specify which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or avoid travel time. Many people find that using a mix of longer sessions for planning and shorter follow-ups for troubleshooting fits family life better.
