About Diana
Diana Grello is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 13 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, work through relationship and family challenges, and address parenting concerns. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and the emotional toll of caregiving.
Diana views each person as the expert in their own life. She listens to what matters most and helps people build practical ways to respond to hard moments. Sessions focus on clear, doable steps and on noticing patterns that cause pain, not on labels or complex theory.
Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods. That includes acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and take action, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking, and attachment-informed work to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Skills from dialectical behavior therapy are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.
People who meet with Diana often work on communication problems, blended family issues, separation and divorce concerns, and caregiver stress. She also addresses isolation, shame and guilt, and life transitions like changes in work or family roles. The focus is on practical coping skills and clearer choices.
To begin, the typical first step is a short matching questionnaire and a scheduled first session. Diana works in English and is based in New York. If session formats are important to you, confirm the current options before booking.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small actions in that direction. It helps people who feel stuck by teaching them to accept difficult thoughts while committing to value-driven behavior. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers concrete exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and build different habits. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns influence current interactions and can help when communication or trust issues repeat across relationships.Choosing an approach is a collaborative step. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, past experiences, and what feels workable. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as needed based on how things are going.
The original biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example allowing shorter check-ins between commitments or saving travel time. It can also allow sessions without video if that helps a person focus, or support work on skills practitioners can practice between meetings. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively in remote sessions when they match the person's needs and circumstances.
