Hi, my name is Tracey, and I have been practicing for over 20 years. I specialize in treating Anxiety, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Depression, Bipolar Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Personality Disorders, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I have enjoyed working with children, adolescents, families and young adults for the duration of my career, and I have enjoyed working with LGBT clients for the last ten years. In addition, I have done faith based counseling per client request. Each of these groups of people has unique needs and strengths, and I try to make sure their treatment plans reflect that. I typically use a mixture of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, ERP - Exposure and Response Prevention, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Humanistic Client Centered Therapy and Family Therapies. I have used certified therapy dogs in my practice for the last 15 years, and I have enjoyed seeing so many clients benefit from animal assisted therapy. Most of my therapy dogs have been labradors or golden retrievers, and they have all been rescued. Outside of work I enjoy reading, yard work, home improvement projects, thrifting, hiking, and visiting the beach. I learn just as much from my clients as I have from my professional education and training. In fact, I am humbled and grateful to have gone along the therapy journey with so many clients.

I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in Georgia with over five years of experience working as a therapist.

I have also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My counseling style is interactive and client-centered. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I take a solution-focused approach to counseling employing therapeutic models aimed at supporting positive change through strengths based counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I know it can be hard to find a counselor who “gets it.” One key is to develop a trusting relationship through maintaining confidentiality, listening attentively and providing support for positive change. I find video sessions work best in establishing this relationship, and can interact with you in whatever manner you feel most comfortable. I look forward to working with you!
