Diana Yidi, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
Hello! My name is Diana Yidi, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from San Diego State University and my Bachelor’s degree from California State University, Los Angeles. I believe clients are the experts in their own lives, and I feel honored to have the privilege of walking alongside them to offer support. I am passionate about supporting clients as they build self-compassion, experience growth, and healing. My approach I utilize a person-centered approach when providing therapy. I meet clients where they are in their healing journey and start from there. I believe that every human is inherently worthy, and my role is to reflect the beauty and humanity of every person I work with. I use an eclectic approach to therapy, considering frameworks such as attachment theory and stages of development to better understand my clients’ experiences. I employ modalities such as CBT, DBT, and often use art as a method of exploration and coping. I have been trained in EMDR and apply a trauma-informed lens in supporting my clients. My focus I have experience working with all age groups. I am comfortable treating depression, anxiety, life transitions, and have worked closely with child abuse-related issues and the impact of trauma. I have a special interest in working with teens, transitional-aged youth, and young adults. My communication style My communication with clients is warm, honest, and direct. I aim to always be my authentic self and provide unconditional positive regard to those I work with. I am friendly, kind, and respectful. I believe in providing as much information as possible about what to expect from therapy with me and often check in about what is working well and what adjustments I can make to better support my clients. Being vulnerable can be difficult, and I believe in co-creating a safe and judgment-free space that allows people to be their authentic selves.
