It’s been many years since we’ve seen Diane. Pre-pandemic. She’s is absolutely wonderful. My husband and I were a bit nervous to do counseling again because we didn’t have a very effective experience previously. We were still hurting and we were not communicating well before Diane. We read the previous reviews and loved her approach to fixing our marriage. The homework was a bit uncomfortable but we understood that if we wanted to see change then we had to be uncomfortable. We still use the tools she’s given us and it’s be... read more

My husband and I went to see Diane after seeing other counselors on and off over the years and getting mediocre results.

Then, she gets down to business and gives couples very... read more

My husband and I were skeptical at first because we heard things like “marriage counseling leads to divorce”, but Diane reassured us on day one that she was not here to split people up but to keep them together.

We were afraid to go to Healthy Marriages because of some of the comments on the website. However, after eight sessions, Diane provided us with the tools to make our marriage better.

Although we are not completely whole yet, we have the tools to make our marriage better. We are approaching our 50th, and using what we learned during our sessions, we hope for fifty more.

My wife and I had an excellent experience working with Diane. She was easy to work with and found ways to help that worked for us. Diane has a depth of experience. She is highly skilled. If you are reading this review I know it's a hard time in your life. Unfortunately, who you chose to help you is extremely important. As a physician I was very critical of the counseling process in general, but Diane Thurlow was the right choice, and I'm grateful we didn't choose someone else. She is warm and professional.
