Diana Gregory, LCSW — Therapist in Missouri

Hi there, I'm Diana!

My approach to therapy is structured, goal-oriented, and solution-focused. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns, develop practical coping strategies, and work toward meaningful change.

My focus

I work with adolescents, adults, and families navigating anxiety, life transitions, and relationship challenges, often helping clients struggling with overthinking, self-doubt, and emotional regulation. I specialize in treating anxiety, mood-related concerns, stress, and self-esteem issues.

My approach

My approach is direct yet compassionate, providing a structured and supportive space where clients can challenge limiting beliefs, build resilience, and create meaningful change. I tailor treatment to each client's unique needs, integrating practical tools that can be applied in daily life.

My communication style

I create a structured yet supportive environment where clients feel heard, challenged, and empowered. I value humor as a way to ease tension and create a comfortable space for clients to be themselves. Clients often describe working with me as insightful, transformative, and grounded in real-world application.

My journey to mental healthcare

I'm passionate about helping clients achieve lasting change by breaking unhelpful patterns and developing healthier coping strategies. What drives me is witnessing clients take control of their narratives and experience growth, whether it's managing anxiety, improving relationships, or finding clarity in life's challenges.

My goals for you

I take a collaborative and structured approach to goal setting, ensuring goals are realistic, measurable, and aligned with each client's needs. We break larger goals into actionable steps and track progress, making adjustments as needed. My approach balances accountability with flexibility.

Our first session

In our first session, clients can expect a welcoming, structured conversation where we discuss their concerns, goals, and what they hope to achieve in therapy. I'll gather background information and introduce how therapy can help, identifying thought patterns and behaviors that may be contributing to their challenges.
