About Dianne

Dianne Seibel is a Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist (LCMFT) based in Kansas. She has two decades of experience supporting people facing anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting stress, addiction, and trauma. Her manner is warm and direct, aimed at helping people make clear, doable changes.

Dianne listens first and then helps people tell the story they need to tell. She uses Narrative ideas to help separate a person from their problems and to find new meanings in painful experiences.

Background and approach

She also draws on attachment perspectives to look at how early bonds shape current relationships. Her approach blends client-centered conversation with practical tools from cognitive behavioral work and skills from dialectical behavior strategies. Sessions often mix talking, feedback, and simple exercises to try between meetings.

The goal is clearer thinking and healthier actions, not jargon or tests. Dianne is comfortable addressing intimacy issues, grief, career transitions, ADHD, and the effects of abuse. She treats concerns about identity and sexual expression without judgment.

Her work often focuses on how life events and relationships influence mood, self-esteem, and coping. People who choose her can expect a respectful, nonstereotyping space to talk through problems and to test new ways of relating. She frames therapy as a collaboration and helps set practical steps toward change.

Dianne encourages small experiments that build confidence over time.

Approaches listed

Narrative Therapy in this listing

Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Dianne directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

Online session options

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Many of Dianne's methods adapt well to remote sessions. Narrative Therapy helps people tell new stories about themselves and their relationships, often by identifying and challenging the problem-saturated story they tell. This approach can be used in conversation, journaling prompts, and short between-session tasks that fit well into video or messaging formats.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of connection and distance in relationships and helps people try new ways of relating. It can be helpful for intimacy concerns, grief, and stress that come from relational hurts, and it works through dialogue and role-play exercises that suit video or phone meetings.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on respectful listening, empathy, and supporting a person's own goals. It gives space for people to set the pace of work and is especially useful when someone needs to feel heard before trying new strategies.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will ask about goals, history, and what feels most useful, then suggest methods to try. Plans are adjusted as needed based on progress and comfort.

Online formats offer practical advantages. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can support quick check-ins or homework prompts. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity when schedules or locations change.
