Hello! I am Diane Thomas, MS, LPC. I have spent more than three decades caring for others within the healthcare system, with nearly 10 years focused exclusively on supporting individuals in an outpatient mental health setting. My career is defined by a deep-seated belief in the power of consistent, empathetic care. By combining 30 years of medical context with a specialized focus on mental wellness, I provide a stable, experienced hand for patients navigating their mental health journey toward healing. I believe therapy should be a collaborative, safe space where you can finally unpack life's heaviest challenges. With a background in trauma-informed care, I specialize in helping adults move beyond just 'getting by' to truly thriving. By blending mindfulness with CBT, we’ll work together to foster lasting change. My goal is for you to leave every session feeling truly heard, deeply supported, and empowered to take on what's next. In our first session, we will focus on building rapport and understanding your unique history. I provide a warm, non-judgmental space where you can share your goals and concerns at your own pace. Together, we’ll outline a personalized roadmap for your growth and ensure you feel safe and heard from day one.
