About Tracy
Tracy Egger is a licensed clinical social worker with 26 years of experience who helps people manage anxiety and related concerns. She works with adults who feel overwhelmed by stress, panic, social anxiety, depression, or past trauma. Tracy focuses on practical steps people can use right away while also listening to their story.
Her sessions aim to be warm and straightforward. She helps people notice patterns, try new ways of responding, and build small habits that reduce distress.
Background and approach
Tracy supports those dealing with panic attacks and social phobia as part of this work. Tracy draws on long clinical experience in Connecticut and nearby areas. She combines listening with problem-solving so clients leave with clear ideas to practice between sessions.
This can include breathing or grounding tools for panic and step-by-step exposure to reduce social fear. She frames goals collaboratively so people set realistic, measurable steps toward feeling better. Progress is tracked in simple ways, and adjustments are made when things aren’t working.
The focus is on what helps in daily life rather than abstract theory. Tracy also helps people navigate family stress and the emotional fallout of abuse or trauma. She supports building self-esteem and finding ways to manage depressive symptoms alongside anxiety.
The result is a practical, steady approach to feeling more in control.
Approaches that help with anxiety online
Tracy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on real-world results. One common approach helps people learn breathing and grounding skills, and teaches steps to interrupt panic attacks so episodes become shorter and less intense. Another approach involves gradual exposure to feared situations, which breaks patterns of avoidance and is often used for social anxiety and phobias.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tracy will listen to what is most troubling, discuss options, and try strategies that match goals and comfort levels. This is a collaborative process that may change over time as progress is tracked and new needs appear.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions let people use visual cues and interactive exercises. Phone sessions use less data and can fit a break at work. Live chat or messaging can be useful for quick check-ins, brief coping reminders, or for people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep working on skills between meetings.
