About Diamond Marie Thaxton

Diamond Marie Thaxton is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who brings a contemporary, individualized approach to therapy. She works from the view that people often hold their own answers and benefit from clear guidance to trust their intuition and build practical skills for navigating life’s challenges. Her style is direct yet comforting and centers on solution-focused strategies that fit well for busy individuals who use therapy as a focused opportunity to reflect and reset.

With seven years of experience, Diamond has helped people manage relationship challenges, substance and behavioral addictions, and personal growth goals. She emphasizes accountability and offers targeted assignments to support the development of lasting, healthy habits. Her work with couples draws on established relationship models such as the Gottman Method and Imago Therapy, and she welcomes diverse relationship structures, including kink-friendly and polyamorous dynamics. She also supports people navigating dating, infidelity, and the work of strengthening emotional connection.

Diamond typically works with clients who have a foundation for self-healing and are ready to engage in solution-focused work; she does not take on individuals in crisis or experiencing severe symptoms that require intensive intervention. She offers live chat sessions as her primary modality to reduce barriers to care, noting that many clients find written expression helps them process thoughts and retain therapeutic tools. Diamond encourages motivated clients to pursue growth with self-compassion and practical steps toward change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Diamond Marie Thaxton

Diamond integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy into online care to address practical goals and day-to-day challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete skills to change moods and behavior, useful for depression, anxiety, and habit change. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, nonjudgmental way to explore ambivalence and strengthen personal motivation for change, often helpful for substance-related concerns and readiness to adopt healthier habits. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes identifying strengths and small, achievable steps toward preferred outcomes, making it a good fit for clients seeking fast, actionable progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Diamond works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds so therapy remains aligned with what the client hopes to accomplish.

Online therapy offers flexible access to licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to fit sessions into busy schedules and choose the format that helps them express themselves most comfortably. These options can make it easier to maintain consistency in care and apply therapeutic tools between sessions, supporting steady progress toward personal goals.
