About Diana
Diana Grello is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief and loss, parenting questions, and related issues. Diana also lists blended family issues among her focus areas.
She prefers a straightforward, respectful approach. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical steps a person can try between meetings. Diana uses familiar therapies such as cognitive behavioral techniques and acceptance-based ideas to help people manage difficult feelings and shifting family roles.
Her work often addresses attachment patterns and communication problems that come up when households change. That includes navigating new partner-child relationships, loyalty conflicts, and the strain of shared parenting after separation. She talks through specific behaviors, expectations, and routines that can reduce daily friction.
Diana also helps people who are dealing with trauma, grief, and long-term stress or compassion fatigue. She uses skills from dialectical behavior therapy when emotions feel intense, and client-centered methods to keep conversation focused on each person’s priorities.
Sessions aim to identify small, doable changes that fit a person’s life. Diana encourages clients to notice what works, adjust plans, and build on strengths. For someone in a blended household, the emphasis is on clear communication, steady boundaries, and realistic steps that make daily life smoother.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
The work often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and attachment-based therapy. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviors and offers concrete strategies for reducing anxiety, improving mood, and changing unhelpful routines. Attachment-based therapy focuses on patterns of relating and can help people understand reactions that come up in close relationships, such as trust or distancing.Finding the right approach is something the therapist will do together with each person. She will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This is a collaborative process that emphasizes practical steps and measurable progress.
Confirm the current online session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when life is hectic. They can also let someone join from a quieter room, avoid camera use if needed, or schedule sessions around parenting and work commitments. Ask about the specific session options offered when you schedule.
