Lucas Dieckhaus

Lucas Dieckhaus

Washington , MO
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA
Lucas Dieckhaus, MA, LPC, is a compassionate Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to helping survivors of trauma heal and reclaim their lives. With experience in the non-profit mental health sector, Lucas recognized a critical gap in traditional treatment approaches—many clients were grappling with deep-seated trauma, while focus remained on surface-level issues such as substance use, depression, and anxiety. By addressing core issues holding individuals back, he enables meaningful progress rather than temporary relief from symptoms. Lucas employs a variety of evidence-based therapies tailored to the needs of his clients, including EMDR, TF-CBT, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Seeking Safety. In addition to trauma-focused methods, he integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to empower clients with the skills they need for sustained self-support after treatment. With a warm and inviting approach, Lucas strives to create a safe space for individuals of all ages, including teens and elders, to embark on their journey toward healing and personal growth.
