About Dianne
Dianne Seibel is a Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist (LCMFT) based in Kansas who helps people facing relationship stress, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, and addiction concerns. She has over 20 years of experience and works with people dealing with trauma, grief, self-esteem struggles, and major life changes. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer communication rather than labels.
Her style is warm and interactive. She treats people with respect and listens for what matters most to them.
Background and approach
Conversations are tailored to each person instead of following a single script. She avoids stigmatizing language and centers the client's goals. Dianne draws from attachment-based work to look at how early bonds affect present relationships.
She also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Emotionally-focused techniques help people name and shift hard emotions in the moment. In sessions she mixes talk, problem-solving, and skill practice.
That might mean planning small experiments between meetings, practicing emotional regulation skills, or mapping relationship patterns to try different responses. The aim is clearer communication, steadier mood, and more effective coping. She accepts English-speaking clients and offers a range of online formats.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the site. Dianne supports adults navigating parenting, career strain, compassion fatigue, chronic health concerns, and complex grief. Her credential LCMFT stands for Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist.
The credential reflects work in relational and individual concerns over two decades of practice.

How attachment work and CBT translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early emotional bonds shape current relationships and trust. Online sessions can be used to map relationship patterns, practice new ways of connecting, and rehearse conversation skills in real time.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors. In remote sessions this often includes setting small between-session tasks, tracking thoughts on the spot, and reviewing what worked or didn't work.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and shift strong emotions during interactions. Over video or phone, the therapist guides naming emotions and practicing responses to reduce reactivity and increase closeness.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That plan can change as needs evolve, and sessions will blend approaches when helpful.
Online formats offer flexibility for busy schedules and different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for emotional work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, real-time coaching, and ongoing skill practice between meetings.
