Dianne Dabney, LPC

Dianne Dabney is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She centers her work on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - a practical, skills-oriented approach that helps clients examine thoughts and patterns that influence emotions and behavior. While CBT is her primary modality, she combines elements from other evidence-informed methods to tailor care to each person.

Dianne has worked with adolescents, adults, and older adults, addressing a broad range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, anger, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, parenting challenges, self-esteem, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, and compassion fatigue. She emphasizes real-world application by teaching practical tools clients can use between sessions to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Her style is collaborative and strengths-focused, guiding clients to build insight, develop healthier coping strategies, and strengthen relationships. Dianne aims to support people through life transitions and difficult circumstances while helping them move toward more balanced, purposeful living. She welcomes the opportunity to work with individuals who are ready to engage in change and growth.

Therapeutic approaches and convenient online care

Dianne primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) - a focused, skills-based approach that helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often used for concerns like anxiety, depression, stress, and recurring negative patterns. Client-Centered Therapy is also central to her work - this approach emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration to help clients access their own resources and build self-directed change. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are incorporated when clients need strategies for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Dianne approaches treatment collaboratively, recognizing that finding the right fit is part of the process. She works with clients to explore goals, preferences, and responses to different methods, and adapts interventions over time so the approach aligns with each person’s needs.

Online therapy in her practice is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options provide flexibility for clients with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or mobility limits, and make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals without the need to travel.
