About Diana

Diana Perez-Curry is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with eight years of experience. She speaks English and Spanish and helps people coping with anxiety, depression, parenting stress, relationship worries, and trauma and abuse concerns.

She uses straightforward, practical talk therapy. Sessions often focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, building skills to manage emotions, and working on relationship patterns. Diana draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to challenge thinking, dialectical behavior tools for emotion regulation, and client-centered techniques to stay focused on each person's goals.

Her background includes work in social service settings where she supported people facing domestic violence, trauma, and neglect. That experience shaped a focus on safety planning, managing stress, and coping with past hurts. She also helps with issues related to adoption, attachment, and blended family dynamics.

Diana integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to clarify values and commit to small changes. She uses solution-focused steps for short-term goals and emotionally focused ideas when relationship patterns and intimacy issues are central. Sessions balance talking, practicing skills, and setting practical homework when appropriate.

She works with people on a range of concerns including eating and food-related issues, anger, self-esteem, ADHD-related challenges, and life transitions. People who prefer a bilingual therapist and want concrete skills alongside reflective conversation may find her approach useful.

BHow sessions work

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions consistent with those values. It is useful for anxiety, low motivation, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and offers concrete exercises to change patterns that feed depression or worry. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with anger or mood instability.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust methods when something does not fit. This makes sessions responsive to what actually helps in day-to-day life.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, and use shorter check-ins when needed. Some people prefer video for face-to-face conversation while others choose audio for lower bandwidth or brief phone-style sessions. Discuss practical needs and preferences during the first meeting so sessions can be arranged to fit regular routines.
