Dianna Diers, MA, LMFT

Marriage and Family Therapist

A very small sign in my office reads, "I am still learning", Michaelangelo.

 I am a licensed, marriage and family therapist, politely referred to these days as "seasoned".  My "seasoning" includes training in early childhood education and social work prior to more recent training in family therapy, and the treatment of trauma, grief, depression, and anxiety in adults, children, couples and families. I admire and use practices from many therapeutic traditions. I love the deep respect for inner knowledge in the narrative and existentialist approaches, the humor and practicality of solution focused methods, and the heart-centered practices of mindfulness, and modern brain science.

 At the Center for Grief, I also lead therapy groups for parents who have lost children and an art therapy group for those who are grieving losses of many kinds. I particularly am inspired by the strength and resources that come forth from clients in the healing process.  As a parent, grandparent, gardener and lover of stories, music, art and poetry, I am honored to be part of a team that continues to learn from one another and from the individuals and families we are privileged to serve.
