Diane Sullivan, NCPS

Diane Sullivan is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on helping people through major life changes and difficult experiences. She works with clients facing relationship breakdowns, separation and divorce, infidelity, family conflict, and the emotional effects of trauma, grief and loss. Diane also supports people dealing with anxiety, depression and low mood, and she has experience with those affected by near-death experiences related to illness and medical emergencies.

Diane follows a person-centred approach that keeps the conversation focused on the client's priorities. Sessions are shaped around what feels most useful to each person. She aims to listen without judgement and to respond with sensitivity and compassion.

Her way of working is practical and straightforward. Diane helps people talk through painful events, make sense of confusing feelings, and consider steps forward. She encourages clients to set goals at a pace that feels manageable and to use the therapy room as a place to try out new ways of coping.

With six years of experience and the NCPS credential, Diane draws on everyday language rather than clinical jargon. She tailors support to the individual, acknowledging the courage it takes to seek change. People looking for help with stress, relationship issues, bereavement, or life transitions may find her approach approachable and steady.

How a person-centred approach works online

Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens deeply, reflects what they hear, and follows the client's lead to help them make sense of feelings and choices. This approach suits issues like grief, anxiety, relationship change and life transitions because it prioritises what matters to the individual.

Diane will work collaboratively to find which ways of working feel most helpful. Together the client and counsellor will discuss goals, try different ways of talking about problems, and adjust the approach as needs change. The emphasis is on partnership and on building a working relationship that fits the person's preferences.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or remove the need to be on camera when that feels difficult. The original profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use online sessions to support people unable to attend in person and to help maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change.
