About Diana
Diana Gunner is a counsellor with four years of practical experience supporting people through difficult times. She holds BACP registration, which means she follows professional standards set by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Diana aims to make first steps into therapy easier and less daunting for anyone who is worried about starting.
She keeps sessions straightforward and tailored to each person. Conversations focus on understanding feelings, thoughts and behaviours.
Background and approach
Diana listens without judgment and helps people find words when it feels hard to describe what they are going through. Diana often works with stress, anxiety, trauma and bereavement. She also supports people dealing with self-esteem, depression, relationship strain, eating and parenting challenges, anger, ADHD and life changes.
Additional areas she has worked with include attachment concerns, fertility and baby loss, caregiver stress and cancer-related issues. Her way of working draws on Existential therapy alongside client-centred, psychodynamic and solution-focused ideas. That means sessions can explore personal meaning and values, as well as practical steps and patterns that influence daily life.
Diana adapts each approach to the needs of the person in front of her. Most of her work is offered in short-term blocks, often around six sessions, and she encourages people to set clear goals for their time together. The focus is on helping people manage immediate difficulties and discover clearer ways forward.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling
Diana draws on Existential therapy to help people explore meaning and personal values when life feels uncertain. This approach looks at choices, purpose and how someone wants to live, which can help with grief, emptiness or major life changes.She also uses Client-Centred therapy, which focuses on listening closely and offering a non-judgemental space so people can find their own solutions. Psychodynamic ideas are used to notice repeating patterns and how past experiences shape current feelings, helpful for attachment issues and longstanding difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Diana will discuss different ways of working and agree a plan with the client based on their goals and preferences. That way sessions are a collaborative effort to try what fits best.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you see facial cues and have a fuller conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel, while keeping the focus on steady progress and practical coping strategies.
