Diane Scott
About me
As a person-centered counsellor credentialed in the UK with over 3 years of professional experience, I am deeply committed to providing a therapeutic environment that fosters growth, self-discovery, and healing. My approach is rooted in the principles of person-centered therapy where I strive to understand your experience from your perspective.
My ethos is that you are the expert in your own life, and my role is to provide guidance and support, to listen without judgement, and help you navigate through your problems and difficulties. We will work together towards the positive changes you seek in life.
Throughout our work together I will maintain a non- judgmental, and accepting attitude, valuing you as you are. I provide a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings without fear of criticism or rejection.
I work collaboratively with you, empowering you to take an active role in your therapeutic process.
Please note that I can only offer evening sessions currently.

Diane is fantastic. I first started speaking to her in 2025 and after a handful of sessions, felt good to move forward without therapy. Now, a year later, I am back speaking to her as she is helping me navigate new situations in my life.
Written on Apr 01, 2026 after therapy with Diane for 10 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, parenting issues, self esteem, and anger management
I have only been with Diane for a few weeks but I can see exactly why I chose her to be my therapist. She understands where I come from and helps me understand through both a sense of self realisation and being told methods I can use to help me grow and develop as a person. I can see a clear path of self growth in my sessions with her and can’t wait to see where this journey takes me
Written on Dec 08, 2025 after therapy with Diane for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, anger management, coping with life changes, and adhd
Diane has helped me so much, she’s very understanding and her support is amazing. Every session that I have with Diane makes me feel better and I really appreciate the work that she puts in to help me through my bad times. Ive learnt alot from her such as, how to ground yourself, how to breathe when stressed etc. 10/10 would definitely recommend Diane to anyone that needs help. I couldn’t ask for anything more from her.
