About Diana
Diana Perez-Curry is a Florida LCSW with eight years of experience. She speaks English and Spanish and helps people facing anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship concerns. She also supports those dealing with parenting stress, identity questions, and eating or anger-related issues.
She keeps sessions straightforward and focused on practical steps. Diana uses approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools to help manage strong emotions and make values-based choices.
Her background includes a Bachelor’s in Psychology and a Master in Social Work from the University of Central Florida. Diana has worked across social work settings and has experience with trauma, domestic violence, neglect, and related aftermaths that can shape day-to-day functioning.
In sessions she combines client-centered listening with structured skills practice. That might mean noticing thought patterns, trying small behavioral experiments between sessions, and using grounding or emotion-regulation strategies when feelings feel intense.
People often come with concerns about self-esteem, mood swings, ADHD-related struggles, or difficulties in relationships and family life. Diana also addresses adoption and foster care issues, attachment and blended-family questions, caregiver stress, chronic illness impacts, and forgiveness or abandonment themes.
She offers services in English and Spanish and accepts international clients. To begin, follow the site’s matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to discuss goals and next steps.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking actions that align with those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help when anxiety or avoidance limits everyday activities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) aims to spot and test unhelpful thoughts and then try different behaviors to reduce distress and build confidence. It is commonly used for anxiety, low mood, and negative self-talk. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help when feelings become intense or relationships are strained.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust plans over time based on what helps. Sessions often mix listening with concrete skill practice and short exercises to use between meetings.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing meetings from different locations. Some formats may also allow shorter check-ins or audio-only conversations when video is not possible. Discuss preferences and practical needs during the first appointment to shape how sessions will be scheduled and run.
