I am a psychologist with 15+ years of diverse experience across research, writing, education, and applied practice. In addition to ongoing training in Family Systems Psychotherapy (Association of Systemic Therapists, since April 2024), I work as a psychology writer, freelance educator, and coach.
My work spans:

I began my career as a volunteer working with socially disadvantaged individuals and groups, primarily with children and youth. Over several years, I advanced in my career and gained certifications as a peer educator and life coach. This enabled me to take on a more active role in teaching and coaching. Leveraging my experience, I helped train several generations of volunteers, leading workshops, courses, and seminars to equip them with the skills and knowledge necessary to impact their communities positively.
I am also a certified assertive communication trainer and a trainer for future assertive communication trainers.
I am a certified Life Coach specializing in various areas such as Goal Success, Mindfulness, and Cognitive Behavioral Life Coaching. I hold a Professional Counselling and Relationship Counselling Diploma.

I put all the knowledge I gained into my work and my writing.
I worked as an HR consultant and educator.
My main professional interest lies in the correlation between physical and mental health, which I have explored in depth through acquiring a Fitness Instructor/Conditional Trainer license. This holistic approach extends to my certifications as a Meditation Guide and a Nutrition Consultant, allowing me to delve into stress management and different coping styles from a comprehensive perspective.
I have broad experience in academic writing, conducting psychological research and writing reports, essays, and various papers. I have also written countless articles on different psychological subjects, and I can adjust my writing style to accommodate any audience.
As an employee, I am committed to excellence, hardworking, well-organized, self-sufficient, and reliable.

As a Senior Professional in Human Resources, I’ve seen how my insight about therapists and about business helps business owners when they are also therapists. On and off from the time I was a teenager in the 1980s, I’ve seen therapists. For tune-ups of sorts.
Now I specialize in Human Resources for mental health practices around the US.
Here’s what a current mental health client-owner-founder-CEO had to say:
“Adding Diane to our team has been an absolutely amazing shift for our practice! Having an HR focused set of eyes that can help our staff understand that we are a business is invaluable. Recently I observed as she terminated one of our clinicians. She handled it so professionally and effectively I was absolutely awe struck. If you don't have a dedicated HR person, and even if you do, consider adding Diane to your team.”
Here's more about me…
I work from experience in employee relations, payroll, benefits, work visa acquisition, compliance training, continuing education, and diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Since 2015 I have worked directly with employees and their CEOs and VPs on all matters of HR and Payroll.
Let’s chat about your mental health practice and how I can…
• Help therapists understand how the timeliness and content of their session notes impact your business.
• Help practice owners/therapists implement inclusion after therapists of color, for example, are hired.
• Show therapists how to have disciplinary conversations with direct reports without defaulting to providing therapy.
• Deliver termination/firing/layoff to therapists for you.
• Meet with your therapists as needed to help them implement their self-care.
Thanks for having a look at my profile. I invite you to reach out to me to discuss the HR needs of your mental health business.
