About Tracy
Tracy Clarke is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, and low self-esteem. She also supports issues like depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, sleep and eating problems, and challenges related to ADHD and bipolar symptoms. Her work is grounded in practical methods that address daily struggles and recurring patterns.
Tracy uses straightforward, evidence-informed approaches during sessions. She often draws from cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Background and approach
She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take meaningful action. Her style is warm and person-centered. Tracy focuses on building a strong working relationship first so clients feel heard and understood.
From there she and the client set clear goals and try small, manageable steps between sessions. Tracy has six years of professional experience in mental health and holds a master’s degree. She has substantial experience with addiction counseling and over a decade working with people who have disabilities, including autism and intellectual disabilities.
She is completing a PhD in counselor education and supervision. Sessions are offered in English and are available to international clients. Tracy provides therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, adapting the format to what fits a person’s schedule and needs.
Approaches you can use in online sessions
Tracy commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change patterns that feed anxiety, depression, or addictive behavior. CBT focuses on practical skills and short-term strategies that people can use between sessions.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which helps people clarify their values and commit to small actions that move them toward a more meaningful life, even when difficult feelings remain. Attachment-Based ideas inform her work when relationship patterns or early connection issues are part of the struggle, helping clients understand how past bonds influence present behavior.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tracy will collaborate with each person to determine which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. That decision is revisited over time so treatment stays relevant and useful.
Online therapy makes it possible to work together from different places and on different schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions are a good alternative when video is difficult or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging give shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options help fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel routines while keeping treatment focused and consistent.
