About Diane
Diane Malone Kudolo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 19 years of experience. She has worked with high-risk youth and adults and with people facing depression, trauma, anxiety, strained relationships, and grief. Diane lists a broad set of concerns she helps with, including stress, addiction, parenting, ADHD, and blended family issues.
She focuses on what is happening now and on helping people understand thoughts that get in the way. Diane uses listening, genuineness, and respect as part of how she works. Conversations aim to make hidden patterns clearer so clients can make different choices.
Diane draws on a mix of practical approaches to change thinking and behavior. She uses client-centered techniques to follow the person’s lead and CBT to identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts. DBT skills are used for emotion regulation and managing intense moments.
When relationship strains or parenting stress come up, Diane brings methods that address attachment and emotional patterns. She also uses elements of EFT and the Gottman Method for relationship topics when appropriate. She does not claim outcomes; instead she helps people try tools and notice what works for them.
Her practice is based in Texas and sessions are conducted in English. People who are considering therapy are invited to review online therapy options and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule a first session.
How Diane integrates approaches for online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following the person's concerns and building a respectful working relationship. It helps when someone needs to talk through their priorities and feel heard before taking action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete techniques to shift unhelpful thinking patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving day-to-day coping when reactions feel overwhelming.Picking the right approach is part of the work together. Diane will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust as needed. That collaboration helps decide when more skills practice, thought work, or emotionally focused work is most useful.
Session formats are not listed here, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow check-ins during a lunch break or between commitments. Some formats can reduce bandwidth needs or let people choose shorter check-ins when life is hectic. Licensed professionals adapt their techniques so evidence-based approaches like CBT and DBT can be used effectively in remote appointments.
