About me
I am a Human Givens therapist specialising in stress and anxiety and a Mindful Self-Compassion teacher. I incorporate insights and practices from mindful self-compassion into my therapy.
I work with adults, young people and teens and have experience of working with the many challenges facing young people in the world today. I also work with military veterans with PTSD; people going through loss and bereavement and a whole range of clients living with anxiety and stress with its many knock-on effects.
I am a musician by training which gives me insight into the challenges faced by people working in the creative industries. I am also active in the realm of sustainability and have explored ways of working effectively with eco-anxiety. I have experienced long covid and have insight into the challenges of living with a long-term illness together with resources from being a mindfulness teacher into ways of living well with restricted energy.

Testimonials
Just to say a huge thank you for my really helpful session yesterday. It was lovely to meet you and I feel restored, fortified and more resourceful to continue to be resilient which is exactly what I was hoping for.
I'm so glad we found Diana. She has helped my 12 year old with his anxiety and OCD. Diana was amazing, my son felt very comfortable talking to her and opening up. Diana has given him the knowledge how to use simple tools to help. I'm so grateful as I didn't know where to turn to get the help he needed - Diana was there.
I was waking up in the morning and immediately searching for a reason to be sad, and frequently finding myself in deep periods of sadness that lasted a couple of weeks at a time. Treatment put a stop to this and gave me useful tools to stay positive and to navigate challenging times. I am happier, more resilient to challenges, and enjoy all aspects of my life more.
