Diane Viola

Born in Sydney, Australia, reading, writing and speaking have been lifelong passions for Diane Viola. From her teens, Diane sought to gain a greater understanding of herself and the human condition through the written word, a tool she has encouraged her clients to use for their own awareness since 1998 in her private practice as a Relationship & Family Counsellor and Coach.

Travels with Buster - A Journey of Unconditional Love is her first book, written from the heart, with a second due in 2020. Signed copies are available from her website https://www.dianeviola.com or connect with Diane on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/DianeViolaAu....

With an education and training background, in her former role as Program Manager for The Peer Support Foundation NSW, Diane developed school-based, peer-led, anti-bullying and personal development programs for children and young people which were recognised for their contribution toward anti-violence and suicide prevention. Through this experience, her commitment to communicate difficult concepts in an accessible manner became the inspiration for her future writing.

Writing occasional pieces for magazines and journals, Diane’s articles, podcasts and videos on personal growth, relationship, parenting, family, life purpose and social issues can be found in her 'Inner Sense' Blog athttps://www.positiverelating.com/resources/.

Diane moved to the Gold Coast in 2002 where she lives with her husband, Roberto.
