Dianne Taylor , NCPS

Dianne Taylor is a person-centred counsellor based in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience across the charity sector and private practice, including work with groups in mental health settings. She specialises in a wide range of concerns such as addictions, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, self-esteem difficulties, relationship and family challenges, grief, and coping with life changes, as well as issues related to eating, sleeping and intimacy.

Her practice also addresses ADHD, bipolar conditions, compassion fatigue, parenting and caregiver stress, abandonment and attachment issues, body image and codependency, dissociation, and personality-related concerns such as avoidant or dependent patterns. Dianne adapts her approach to each person, combining clinical models with a person-centred mindset to meet the specific needs presented in therapy.

Trained with the NCPS credential, which indicates qualification in person-centred counselling, she emphasises respect, sensitivity and compassion in every session. She offers unconditional positive regard while listening, supporting and empowering people as they process difficult experiences. Dianne brings practical tools and therapeutic skills to help clients manage symptoms, explore childhood influences that appear in adulthood, and build motivation for change.

Clients say that they feel relaxed with her quickly and are able to open up easily. She is accepting new clients and welcomes international clients for online sessions.

Therapeutic approaches for online care and emotional healing

Dianne integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and client-centred principles to support people in online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking committed action - it can be helpful for anxiety, stress and motivation challenges. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they influence current connections and emotional responses, which can assist with intimacy, relationship difficulties and attachment issues. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises empathy, unconditional positive regard and the client’s own pace; it creates a supportive environment for processing grief, low self-esteem and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Dianne collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the focus as progress unfolds. This collaborative process helps ensure that therapy feels relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, access support from different locations and maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver the same therapeutic skills and guidance as face-to-face work, while accommodating individual schedules and communication styles.
