Diane received her bachelor of arts from San Francisco State University in Theatre Arts. While loving working on plays and musicals, she decided that working to help people with real life difficulties, tragedies, mental illness, and trauma would ultimately be more fulfilling. Diane received her masters in Social Work at Bridewater State University and has become passionate in doing group work and also working with older adults.
Prior to joining Falmouth Human Services, Diane worked in Kansas at a small rural hospital doing Intensive Outpatient Programming (IOP) for Older Adults. Upon returning home to Cape Cod, she did the same type of IOP work for Saint Anne’s Hospital in Fall River. Most recently, Diane has provided therapy with individuals, couples and families at the Community Health Center of Cape Cod.
In her off time, she rehearses and sings with the Cape Cod Chorale and enjoys spending time with family, friends, and her dog and cat, Sophie and Sam!
