Getting to know Diana De Sousa

Are you ready to feel happier and make more effective decisions? Therapy offers an opportunity to identify underlying issues and work toward meaningful change. My goal is to provide a supportive and collaborative environment that helps you strengthen your foundation and move toward a more fulfilling life. I often tell my clients, “You will leave with something and leave something behind.” Through a direct and goal-oriented approach, I strive to help individuals address their current challenges, gain insight, and develop practical tools for managing future concerns. Services are also available in Spanish.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I have over 10 years of experience in the field of social work, providing support to individuals and families facing a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, and family-related challenges. My professional background includes extensive work with individuals with developmental disabilities, substance use disorders, etc. My primary goal in therapy is to meet each individual and family where they are, providing a supportive and collaborative environment that promotes growth and understanding. I utilize evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and other scientifically grounded interventions to help clients address their needs.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I begin working with clients by creating a safe, supportive, and collaborative space to understand their concerns, goals, and lived experiences. The initial session focuses on getting to know the client, discussing current challenges, relevant personal history, and identifying what they hope to gain from therapy. My approach is trauma-informed, client-centered, and integrative, drawing primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and solution-focused techniques. Sessions are flexible and adapted to each individual’s needs, strengths, and pace. Depending on the client, sessions may involve exploring thoughts and emotions, building practical coping skills, identifying patterns, and working toward meaningful, achievable goals. I have experience working with children, adults, and older adults, and I tailor my therapeutic style to be developmentally appropriate and culturally responsive. Throughout the therapeutic process, I collaborate with clients to monitor progress, adjust goals as needed, and support long-term growth and resilience. I provide therapy only and focus on empowering clients with tools they can use both in and outside of sessions.
