About Diana
Diana Grello is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief and loss, parenting challenges, depression, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses attachment issues, self-esteem, and problems with communication and control.
Diana frames clients as the experts on their own stories. She aims to build on each person’s strengths while talking through what feels stuck. Sessions are straightforward and focused on practical steps people can use between meetings.
Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. That means she pays attention to feelings and relationship patterns, helps people notice what matters to them, and offers tools to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She uses client-centered and attachment-based ideas to keep the work grounded in each person’s experience.
Diana has worked with people coping with trauma and abuse, caregiver stress, blended family challenges, divorce and separation, and isolation or loneliness. She also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose.
People can expect clear conversation about goals and small, achievable steps to try between sessions. She listens for patterns in feelings and interactions and helps clients experiment with new ways of responding. Her style is practical and focused on what will change daily life.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and patterns in relationships. It helps people name difficult feelings and notice how those feelings shape interactions and choices.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches skills to notice thoughts without getting stuck and to clarify what matters most. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and decisions about life changes.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect current connections. It can help people understand why certain responses feel automatic and try different ways of relating.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Diana discusses goals and preferences with each person and uses those conversations to decide which methods to emphasize. The work is collaborative and adjustments are made as needs change.
