About Tracie
Tracie Diamond is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with nine years of experience. She practices in Iowa and lists work with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, and depression among her main areas.
Tracie draws on practical, evidence-informed methods. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help people notice thought patterns and learn skills for emotion regulation. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are also part of her approach for building awareness and motivation.
Sessions are straightforward and focused on real-life goals. Tracie helps people identify unhelpful thinking, try new ways of coping, and practice skills between meetings. She also addresses issues like grief, parenting strain, sleep problems, body image, and addiction as part of broader care.
Her background includes clinical work across multiple states and settings, and she brings that variety into practical problem-solving. Tracie has experience with service members and veterans and understands transitions related to moving or changing roles.
She tends to work with adults facing major life changes such as career shifts, relationship breaks, or recovery from substance use. Conversations are direct and respectful, aimed at developing concrete strategies to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.

How her approaches are used in online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s priorities so goals come from the client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively with each client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision can be adjusted over time as progress is made or goals shift.
Confirm the specific session options before booking so you know how meetings will be scheduled. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around school, work, or other commitments. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to keep therapy consistent during life changes. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively across remote sessions, with a focus on skills practice, homework between meetings, and real-world problem solving.
