About Diana
Diana Ingram is a PACFA credentialed counsellor with 22 years of experience in Australia. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting strains, depression and relationship concerns. Diana values each person's knowledge of their own life and offers steady support while people take steps toward change.
Her practice focuses on practical, down-to-earth conversations. She listens first and helps people name what matters most to them. Sessions aim to build on existing strengths and to find small, manageable ways to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.
Diana has experience with a wide range of situations including domestic and family violence, separation, communication problems and challenges linked to chronic illness or pain. She has also worked with first responder issues, people from First Nations communities, migrants, neurodiverse and gender diverse clients, and across the lifespan with adults, adolescents and children.
Her approach draws on therapies that encourage self-awareness, values-based action and clearer thinking. She helps people explore relationships, family of origin issues, grief, guilt and shame, and the practical tasks of parenting or rebuilding life after a separation.
People who come to Diana are usually seeking a supportive, collaborative space to sort priorities and try new ways of coping. She aims to offer calm, respectful guidance so people can take the next step toward better emotional balance and clearer decision making.
How her approaches translate to online care
Diana commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide her work online. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and taking meaningful action despite difficult thoughts or feelings, which can help with anxiety, depression and life purpose concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help when people want to improve connection, communication or repair relational wounds.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Diana works collaboratively to decide what fits each person’s needs and goals. She will listen to what is most important, suggest approaches that suit the situation, and adapt techniques if something doesn’t feel helpful.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows sessions when physical mobility or chronic illness makes travel difficult. Ask about practical options and scheduling when you arrange your first session.
