About Diana
Diana Perez-Curry is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage parenting stress, everyday anxiety, and depression. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make sessions straightforward and practical for busy parents. Her approach focuses on clear goals and skills parents can try between sessions.
She brings eight years as an LCSW in Florida to her counseling. Diana uses gentle, direct conversation to identify what is most helpful in the moment and what can change over time.
Background and approach
Sessions often include short skill practice, reflection, and steps to test at home. Her work addresses trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, and family challenges that affect parenting. She also supports people dealing with anger, low self-esteem, eating and food-related issues, and stress from life transitions.
ADHD, chronic illness, adoption and attachment questions are part of her focus as well. Diana draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to shape sessions. She tailors methods to each person’s goals rather than following a single script.
Conversations aim to increase clarity, calm, and actionable next steps. Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging, and Diana meets people from Florida and beyond. Parents who need help with blended family challenges, caregiver stress, or navigating separation often find the practical, step-by-step style useful.

Therapeutic approaches for parenting and stress online
Diana commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online sessions. ACT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values, which can be useful for parents facing difficult choices. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that increase anxiety or low mood, and it often includes short at-home exercises.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on what matters to each person and encourages practical self-reflection. Together, therapist and client decide which approach fits best and adjust methods as goals evolve. This collaborative process helps pinpoint priorities and keeps sessions focused on what will make daily life easier.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstration. Phone sessions can be a good fit for brief check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick reflections, tracking progress, and keeping momentum between longer sessions. These choices aim to increase flexibility so therapy can fit into parenting schedules and busy days.
