Diana Becker, BACP

Diana Becker works from an integrative, person-centred perspective that focuses on relationships and inner meaning. She draws on attachment-based and psychodynamic ideas alongside mindfulness and Jungian concepts to help people understand what brings them distress. Diana frames problems as signals and opportunities for change rather than simply faults to fix. She speaks English and German and is based in the United Kingdom.

Diana offers a calm and accepting space to talk about anxiety, depression, grief and life transitions. She supports people dealing with stress, panic, addiction, low self-esteem and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Practical coping strategies and gentle reflection are used to reduce overwhelm and to increase emotional awareness.

She combines talking therapy with mindfulness exercises and somatic awareness to help people notice how feelings show up in the body. The approach is collaborative - the person sets goals and Diana helps map steps forward. Her ten years of practice inform a flexible, thoughtful way of working.

Diana is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. International clients are not currently accepted, and she works with people in the United Kingdom.

How Diana's approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions. Online sessions can help people notice those patterns, name painful expectations, and practise new ways of relating to others and themselves.

Client-centred therapy puts the person at the heart of the work and relies on listening, acceptance and empathy. In an online setting this can look like steady, regular sessions where the counsellor reflects what is said and supports the person to find their own answers.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention exercises and breathing practices to manage anxiety and stress. These practices transfer well to video or phone sessions and can be used between appointments to steady the nervous system and reduce panic or overwhelming feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and together they will decide which methods to try. That collaborative process can include adjusting strategies as therapy progresses to make sure the work remains helpful.

Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face connection when travel is difficult, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a break at work, and live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins or when someone prefers writing. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and to fit sessions into a busy life.
