BeWELL Institute

Diana Gasperoni is the founder of BeWELL Psychotherapy, Lead Educator at the BeWELL Institute, and creator of the BeHER Teen Program. Over the past decade, she has built a practice where thousands of clients have found support, healing, and lasting change — with a particular focus on long-term therapeutic relationships, unconscious patterns, and the kind of depth work that takes time to trust. Diana’s clinical approach is grounded in modern psychoanalysis. As a long-term patient and student of the field, she brings both rigorous theoretical training and lived experience to her work. She believes that understanding ourselves is a lifelong process — and that the therapeutic relationship, held with care and consistency, is the primary vehicle for change. Her clinical interests center on shifting identities, emotional experience, compulsive patterns, and the painful life transitions that bring people to treatment.
