Diane Salisbury, BACP

Diane Salisbury uses a warm, person-centred approach to help people make sense of difficult feelings. She combines listening with practical conversation so clients can tackle issues such as anxiety, depression and stress. Diane is clear and down-to-earth in sessions and focuses on helping people take small, manageable steps forward.

She has 12 years of experience working with concerns including relationships, self-esteem, grief, trauma and abuse, and coping with life changes. Diane also supports people dealing with ADHD, intimacy-related worries, eating and sleeping difficulties, and career or parenting strain. Her additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, codependency and communication problems.

Diane draws on client-centred, existential and psychodynamic ideas alongside Jungian and mindfulness approaches. That mix helps her balance practical coping strategies with deeper reflection on patterns and meaning. Sessions can be short-term for a specific problem or longer-term for exploring long-standing patterns.

Her training includes a degree in Psychosocial Studies and a diploma in counselling. Diane is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

She offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging. Appointments are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and creating a supportive space where people can talk through their concerns and make their own decisions. This approach helps when someone needs a non-judgemental place to work through anxiety, low self-esteem or relationship worries.

Existential Therapy encourages reflection on meaning, choice and responsibility in life. It can suit people facing major life changes, grief or feelings of emptiness who want to examine values and direction.

Diane will work collaboratively to find the right mix of approaches for each person. Together they will consider what the client hopes to achieve, which methods feel most helpful and how long to work together. Deciding on an approach is part of the first conversations rather than a fixed promise from the start.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people meet face to face without travel, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work, and live chat or text-based messaging provide shorter check-ins and ongoing written support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around daily life while using the methods that best suit each person's goals and preferences.
