Professional statement

Diana Flemma is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Evanston, IL who specializes in perfectionism, anxiety, college mental health, parenting, self-esteem, ADHD, and mindfulness. She works with teens, young adults and college students, families, parents, including stay-at-home moms, and adults across the lifespan. She particularly enjoys working with college and high school students who are navigating perfectionism and have a work hard/play hard mentality.

She helps her clients gain the skills needed to take on life’s stressors. She also helps them reconnect with their values and rediscover their purpose in life.

Diana offers a safe, nonjudgmental space for clients to share their inner-most thoughts and explore what they truly want out of life. Her Evanston office is conveniently located near Northwestern University and is accessible via the Purple line at Foster Street and the Metra at Davis Street.

Message to clients

I am dedicated to meeting the emotional and psychological needs of my clients. My approach is to be caring and compassionate, while also trying to be direct in guiding clients through their process. I believe that counseling can help individuals and families move in new directions, fostering growth and a sense of well-being. I work with people from all walks of life. Change is possible; what we long for is not beyond reach.
My goal in working with clients is to help them gain the skills needed to cope effectively with life’s stressors, engage meaningfully with others, manage distressing feelings, regulate emotions, reduce impulsivity, increase self-confidence, communicate effectively, and to learn to express their needs successfully. I am a firm believer that we all want to do well.

Client testimonials

"Diana was welcoming and helpful but also transparent about next steps for scheduling and payment. I appreciated that."

- Zencare client • July 2021

"She listened, understood, and really heard what has been going on with my daughter."

- Zencare client • May 2020

"Diana was the first therapist I saw; we worked together when I was in high school. At first, I was very hesitant to seek therapy, and she made the whole process seem so comfortable and non-threatening. I really wasn’t used to speaking about myself or my feelings at all, and she helped me normalize that, realize the importance, and see my anxieties from a clear point of view, without ever coming off as patronizing or judgmental. She cares deeply about her patients and a decade later, she remains the best therapist I have ever worked with!"

- Long-time client • December 2019
