Diana Najera, LCSW

Diana Najera is a licensed clinical social worker in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, and depression. She speaks English and Spanish, and she draws on six years of clinical experience to support those facing major life changes. Diana tells people she sees that they are the experts on their own stories and that therapy builds on their existing strengths.

Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Sessions focus on practical steps you can try between meetings. She uses clear, everyday language and works at a pace that fits each person’s needs.

Diana often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and take action consistent with those values. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and to practice new ways of responding. Narrative and Solution-Focused ideas are used to highlight skills and small shifts that lead to change.

She also pays attention to attachment concerns, caregiver stress, and issues tied to aging or end-of-life care when those topics matter to the person in front of her. Diana addresses postpartum depression, guilt and shame, communication problems, forgiveness, and self-love as part of her work.

If you are thinking about starting therapy, she recommends using the Start Therapy button and completing a short matching questionnaire. That helps match goals and schedule the first visit with a therapist who can meet your needs.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and can help with anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and uses practical exercises to test and change those patterns. It can be useful for depression, anxiety, and parenting stress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to pick or combine methods based on goals, preferences, and how a person responds in sessions. Together they track progress and adjust the plan as needed.

Please confirm current session options before booking since the biography does not list specific online formats. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy days, let them meet without commuting, and make it easier to attend during transitions. Online work can also support shorter check-ins or focused skills practice that fits around caregiving or work schedules.
