About Tracie

Tracie Diamond is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Iowa with nine years of clinical experience.

Background and approach

She focuses on a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, and a variety of related issues such as codependency, communication struggles, chronic pain and illness, and parenting challenges. Tracie tailors care to each person's needs, combining practical strategies with compassionate support.

Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with client-centered listening, dialectical behavior techniques, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to help clients identify unhelpful patterns, manage strong emotions, and set achievable goals. Tracie emphasizes a warm, respectful therapeutic relationship that encourages people to challenge negative self-talk, shift unhelpful beliefs, and build resilience.

She offers sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging to accommodate different preferences and schedules. Clients interested in working with her select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and arrange sessions according to availability.

Licensing details include AK LPC 150691 and IA LMHC 124421, and services are provided in English for those located in the United States.

Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy

Tracie frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and substance use through structured exercises and practical skill-building. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a collaborative, empathetic environment where clients' goals and personal experiences guide the work. In addition, Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques offer concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness when emotions feel overwhelming.

Finding the right combination of methods is part of the therapeutic process, and Tracie approaches that decision collaboratively. She works with each person to identify goals, try different strategies, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful and realistic for daily life.

Online therapy here is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to support a range of preferences and schedules. These options make attending sessions more flexible for people balancing work, caregiving, or health needs, and they allow continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult. Licensed professionals can guide skills practice, homework, and progress tracking across these formats to help clients move toward the outcomes they value.
