Diane Jensen , LCSW

Diane Jensen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Wisconsin with 28 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing a broad range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship and family difficulties, parenting and adoption or foster care challenges, grief and loss, ADHD, anger, low self-esteem, career and financial stress, and caregiving or hospice-related issues. Her practice also addresses intimacy and attachment struggles, codependency, social anxiety, phobias, and the emotional impact of major life transitions.

Diane's style is warm, interactive, and grounded in respect and compassion. She avoids stigmatizing labels and collaborates with each person to shape a treatment plan that fits their particular needs and goals. Clients have told her they find her caring and nonjudgmental, easy to talk with, and appreciate her honest, direct approach. She aims to walk alongside clients through difficult moments while helping them learn more about themselves along the way.

Diane blends cognitive and humanistic perspectives in her work and adapts techniques to the individual client. She offers flexible communication options and can meet by video, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging according to each client's preference. A majority of her availability is during daytime hours, and she checks messages at least once each weekday. It is a privilege for her to support people through healing and growth.

Approaches That Guide Online Care

Diane commonly draws on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in her online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a supportive, respectful relationship that helps people explore their values and feelings; it is helpful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, grief, and navigating life changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns by teaching practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, anger, and stress-related problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Diane works collaboratively with each person to assess their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts techniques over time so the treatment fits the individual rather than forcing a single method.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone appointments, live chats, or text-based messaging to suit different comfort levels and life demands. These options make it easier to access consistent care from licensed professionals while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities, and they support ongoing progress even when in-person visits are not possible.
