About Diamond
Diamond Marie Thaxton is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York. She uses a practical, solution-focused style that is direct but supportive. Her work emphasizes clear steps, accountability, and short assignments to help people build healthier habits and move forward.
She helps people who are dealing with addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, self-esteem struggles, and depression. She also addresses attachment wounds, abandonment, codependency, and issues around body image and sexuality. Her practice includes support for those navigating infidelity, loneliness, midlife shifts, and questions about life purpose.
Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy in ways that keep sessions goal-oriented. She favors techniques that are brief and practical, and she gives written tasks so clients can practice new skills between meetings. This makes therapy feel like a focused check-in rather than a long process for some people.
She prefers working with clients who are ready to engage in active problem-solving and who have some capacity for self-directed change. She does not work with people in crisis or those experiencing severe mental health symptoms, because her style is best suited to steady, solution-focused work.
Sessions are delivered in a written, live chat format. Many clients find writing helps them organize their thoughts and retain strategies discussed in session. To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on the therapist's availability.
