Getting to know Diana Hoover
I am so proud of you for taking the first step, prioritizing you! I look forward to meeting you where you are and helping you to inspire the changes and adjustments you need to make to your life, for a happier and healthier experience for you and your loved ones. I am passionate about helping individuals work through issues like life transitions, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. I take a client-centered approach while also having the ability to use a variety of other evidence-based therapeutic approaches to help you create a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and concerns. I believe in providing a safe and supportive environment where you are able to express yourself in whatever way makes you feel most comfortable. I welcome you to reach out whenever you are ready to start.
I use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you understand your thoughts and feelings more effectively, to help you better understand and verbalize the emotions and feelings behind your behavior. I prioritize making sure that my clients are empowered and understand that they are the experts in their lives. Because of this, I truly value making sure that my clients are always informed about their treatment and plans for their treatment. I believe in helping you to identify your coping mechanisms to help you feel more in control of your feelings and behaviors. I like to use a variety of therapeutic techniques to help my clients reach their specific goals. I will challenge you in a caring and compassionate way to help you identify, create, and demonstrate the changes that you desire. Together, we will accomplish the progress and goals that you desire.
I also work with parents, teens, and youths of all ages in helping them to evolve and discover their true purpose while inspiring growth, while meeting them where they are.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I believe in having open, clear communication with my clients. I practice active listening and will give you a space to reflect on your experiences in a nonjudgmental, safe place to express yourself in the way you need to express your feelings. If we come across a topic that you're not quite ready to discuss, I ask that you inform me, and we will plan to explore a time that is better for you. Because sometimes we learn that we have to address one thing before we can heal another thing.
As long as I can remember, I have had a natural passion for helping people. God has truly guided my footsteps into the counseling field. While I was in school to become an educator, I was a work-study student working in the counseling department at my university. I have always been connected to the counseling world, long before I knew God was grooming me to become a counselor. Each and every assignment for my life has been intentional for the purpose of guiding me to become a counselor. I find true joy in helping others inspire change, purpose, and direction in their world.
I believe that therapy is a partnership between the client and the therapist built on trust and communication about the client's needs and desires that they inspire to achieve. I will be accountable for helping my clients to obtain their therapeutic goals. I challenge my clients to identify, initiate, and execute personal goals they would like to achieve to enhance their quality of life.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Our first session will give us an opportunity to get to know one another. We’ll discuss your background and what brings you to therapy. We may also discuss any assessments that you have completed to give you a better understanding of symptoms you may be experiencing. Therapy is a process, and we’ll continue to build our work together over time. It's normal to feel nervous about your first appointment, but I will do my best to make your first experience as comfortable as I can. We’ll take it one step at a time, and I’m here to guide you through each step of the process.
