About Diane
Diane Salisbury draws on Jungian ideas alongside client-centred and psychodynamic approaches to help people understand what lies beneath their thoughts and feelings. She aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where someone can talk frankly about stress, anxiety, relationships and life changes. Diane is named here as a counsellor with over 12 years' practical experience.
She holds a degree in Psychosocial Studies and a diploma in counselling, and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Background and approach
In sessions Diane listens for patterns that repeat in a person’s life. She gently links present concerns to past experiences and inner meanings. This approach can help with issues such as depression, grief, trauma, and low self-esteem.
It also supports people facing parenting strain, career crossroads, or burnout like compassion fatigue. She uses client-centred listening to prioritise what matters to the individual. Mindfulness tools are offered to help with sleep, anger or intrusive thoughts.
The work can be short term for a specific problem or longer term to explore deeper themes such as attachment or abandonment. Diane works with a wide range of concerns, including ADHD, eating and intimacy issues, sexual orientation matters, chronic illness, and family of origin problems. She pays attention to communication and relationship patterns, commitment worries, and difficulties with control or codependency.
Sessions include practical conversations and reflective exercises. Progress is reviewed regularly so goals stay relevant. People are encouraged to set the pace and to bring what feels most important to each session.

Online support
Approaches online that explore meaning and patterns
Many clients find Jungian ideas useful for noticing recurring life themes and inner symbols that influence feelings and relationships. This approach can help when someone wants to understand deeper patterns behind anxiety, emptiness or attachment concerns.Client-centred therapy places the client's experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens without judgement and follows the person's priorities, which suits those seeking a supportive space to talk through stress, depression or relationship worries.
Existential ideas are also available, encouraging people to face questions about purpose, freedom and responsibility. That work is helpful for career doubts, life transitions and feelings of meaninglessness.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Diane will discuss what feels most helpful and adapt methods to match each person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where plans and progress are reviewed together.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people see non-verbal cues during deeper conversations. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not wanted. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, reflective notes between sessions or busy schedules. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments and personal routines.
