DIANA DUMA, LCSW

I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience providing mental health services to adolescents, adults, and families in a variety of clinical settings. I bring a culturally responsive, compassionate, and client-centered approach to my work.

My clinical practice is grounded in creating a safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive therapeutic environment where clients feel empowered to explore their experiences and work collaboratively toward meaningful goals. I prioritize honoring each client’s pace, autonomy, and best interests while fostering emotional growth and resilience.

I am trained in evidence-based modalities including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Trauma-Informed Care. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress-related concerns, emotional regulation difficulties, interpersonal challenges, and life transitions.

I work best with individuals who are navigating high levels of stress, emotional overwhelm, depression, anxiety, or life transitions, and who are seeking a thoughtful, supportive space to better understand themselves and regain stability.

Many of my clients come to therapy feeling anxious, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to cope with ongoing pressures related to family, work, relationships, or legal and immigration‐related circumstances.

I am especially well suited to support clients who value a grounded, compassionate, and culturally responsive approach to therapy. This includes individuals who may have experienced chronic stress, trauma, or uncertainty and want help processing their experiences while building emotional resilience and practical coping skills.
