Developing trust is key in each session and Mickie is easy to talk to regarding any matter that might arise.

Getting to know Mickie Stern-Diamond
I am a seasoned Psychotherapist and Yoga Instructor with a Master’s in Social Work from Washington University, St. Louis. I offer services specifically designed to help you meet goals that you and I have collaboratively agreed to work on. I have successfully helped clients address issues such as depression, anxiety, relationships, marriage and divorce, fertility, self-esteem, body image, trauma, stress management, career changes, illness, loss and bereavement, and for those who are seeking it, an exploration of one’s spiritual self.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I am dedicated to bring about a successful outcome from therapy. I will be your partner and your cheerleader. Because of my yoga background I have developed an ability to listen very carefully and pick up on subtleties that help to bring to light thoughts and behaviors that may be getting in the way. Some of the techniques I have been successful using are Gestalt Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT, Yoga Therapy and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. I will demonstrate procedures as well as offer you reading materials and workbooks where appropriate to help guide you.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
We begin with a session to find out what you're looking for help with. I do a family chart which helps me to get a sense of the early experiences that have contributed to who you are today. In the next few sessions we will work on Goals. I like to chart what a client is interested in achieving so we can document progress along the way. This is meant to make sure you are getting what you need. This is not a report card and goals can changes as we go through the therapeutic process. For those interested in doing trauma work there will be preparation work for EMDR.

I have been a patient of Mickie's for 9 years. Within those 9 years, she has helped me form healthy relationships, become more confident in relationships and employment, and rectify my thoughts on my self worth. I can confidently say that without her, I would not be the person I am today. She is knowledgeable beyond belief and readily shares that wisdom in the most helpful of ways. I strongly recommend Mickie as a therapist!

Mickie is truly one of the kindest and most compassionate humans that I have ever encountered. She is thoughtful, patient, considerate, compassionate and extremely committed to her clients. She saved my marriage and my family, and she comes with my highest recommendation.

I’ve been seeing Mickie for 3.5 years on a consistent basis. When I came to her, I was dealing with severe anxiety, trauma, and dependence issues that negatively affected my daily life and relationships. I have seen a life changing improvement in my mental health, thought patterns, and relationships in the past few years because of these therapy sessions. Mickie uses a holistic, whole body approach that includes basic meditation and yoga techniques, though this is not enforced if not applicable or useful. Mickie is adaptable & excellent at getting to the root of the issue, even if the patient can’t quite get to the root yet. As a young creative, it’s also incredibly important to me that therapy be a place where I can discuss my trauma and anxieties through my art, and with Mickie this is encouraged and such a genuine experience. Mickie Diamond is generous, compassionate, intelligent, creative, and extremely insightful. Best therapist ever, and best 3.5 years of growth. 10/10.

Mickie is an absolutely amazing therapist and has helped me turn my life around in the 1.5 years I've been working with her. I started with her in the middle of a monthslong anxiety crisis when my appointments with my old therapist were no longer helping me. She has been a godsend. She is a voice of reason, looks at my issues and story holistically, and has helped me discover deep-rooted things I had never uncovered about myself. I cannot recommend her enough.

I was at a very low point in my life when I decided to seek counseling. From the moment I met her, hope returned to my spirit. Her guidance and wisdom have helped me tremendously with getting back my self esteem and confidence.

I came to Mickie after my first therapist accepted a different position, leaving me in need of a new therapist. I noticed a difference right away in Mickie's ability to engage and help to question why I was feeling certain things (my first therapist was a good listener, but that was about it). Mickie challenges me to dig deep, but at my own pace, which makes me feel really comfortable in my sessions. She is really fantastic - highly recommended!
