Diane Winn-Clouse , LPC

Diane Winn-Clouse is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of experience. She uses a client-centered approach that is practical and down-to-earth. Diane focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, and issues that commonly affect women.

Diane blends cognitive behavioral ideas with emotion-focused work. That means she helps people notice thoughts and patterns, and also name and make sense of strong feelings. Sessions aim to be straightforward, with tools you can try between meetings.

Her practice covers many life changes such as career shifts, grief, parenting strain, and midlife transitions. She also addresses body image, eating and sleeping concerns, postpartum depression, and compassion fatigue. Diane pays attention to the ways relationships and family dynamics shape daily life.

Before moving into full-time practice she taught behavioral and social science courses at college for more than a decade. Those teaching years included classes on positive psychology, personality theory, human development, and womens studies. This background informs her clear explanations and practical homework assignments.

Diane works with people who want to manage mood symptoms like depression, OCD-related obsessions and compulsions, phobias, or seasonal affective concerns. She also helps those facing relationship setbacks such as infidelity, separation, or commitment worries. Her style is empathic and action-oriented.

Therapy can feel hard to start, and Diane keeps sessions focused and respectful of each persons pace. She speaks English and French and sees clients in Colorado. Her approach is to listen first, then build a simple, realistic plan together.

How Dianes Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding where you are. Online sessions let Diane follow your lead, reflect what matters to you, and build goals at your pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. In remote sessions she can teach practical exercises, assign short between-session tasks, and review how new habits are going.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps name and work with strong feelings that affect relationships and intimacy. Through video or phone work she guides people to name emotions, explore needs, and practice new ways of connecting or setting boundaries.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Diane will discuss your goals, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust based on what helps. She aims to be collaborative and pragmatic so you notice real changes over time.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and emotional work, phone can be easier when bandwidth is low, and chat or text work well for brief check-ins or coaching-style support. These options make therapy more flexible for busy schedules and varied needs.
