About Dianne

Dianne Mishra is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) based in Michigan with 23 years of experience. She uses an attachment-based perspective to help people understand relationships and how early connections affect current patterns. Dianne aims to create a practical space where parents and individuals can talk through specific challenges and find workable steps forward.

Her style blends Attachment-Based Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. That mix lets her look at relationship roots while also building new skills and short-term goals.

Background and approach

Sessions often focus on concrete strategies for parenting, self-esteem, career transitions, grief, and everyday coping. Dianne has long experience supporting people dealing with adoption and foster care concerns, blended family issues, fertility and pregnancy-related challenges, and postpartum depression. She also helps clients facing workplace difficulties, life-purpose questions, and changes that come with becoming a young adult.

In sessions she listens for strengths and sets clear, doable steps. Conversations cover practical problem solving, shifting unhelpful thoughts, and small behavior changes that can make a difference. The approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

She offers multiple online formats including video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. Those options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to check in between longer sessions when that is helpful.

Online support

How attachment work and focused therapy translate online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and interactions, helping people notice connection needs and respond differently in close relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to improve mood and functioning. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on practical, short-term goals and steps that move a person toward what they want to change.

Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to goals, try different approaches as needed, and work together with the client to pick tools that feel useful. Sessions adapt over time based on what helps most for parenting, grief, career changes, or relationship patterns.

Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let you work face-to-face when schedules and bandwidth allow. Phone sessions can be easier when video isn’t practical or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging make it simple to check in between longer sessions or to handle brief coaching and planning moments. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
