My name is Diane Kato. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and have worked in the behavioral health field for more than 23 years. I view therapy as a journey with blocks that hinder your path to self-healing. I will work with you to identify the best therapeutic approach. Often, I utilize 3 to 4 different therapeutic approaches per session. In most clients, we develop relaxation skills, safe place visualization, and positive communication skills in our first phase of therapy.
I prefer to form a trusting therapeutic alliance. You are the leader of the session and I tailor each session to your needs. I tend to be direct in my communication style. If you are an individual who enjoys homework, I will make sure you receive homework through the portal.
During the first session, I will ask what you would like to work on. Therapeutic goals can be developed within the first stage of therapy. We may change the goals depending on the individual. Goals are developed with the individual and my guidance.
