Tracie Theotokas, LCSW
About me
Hello,
I am a social worker with 17 years experience working in New York. I work with both children and adults. I have a history of working with those with developmental disabilities, drug and alcohol addiction, the aging and their families as well as those who are depressed, anxious, suicidal, low self esteem or just need support due to feeling lost or something else; along with other mental health issues. I am laid back and enjoy talking with those from all over. I listen to what my clients tell me and work on their journey together. I will help you reach your goals through a safe, non confrontational relationship. We will identify your goals and tools to help you achieve these. I use various approaches such as Client Centered Therapy, Existential Therapy, Mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
If you are ready to begin this journey please reach out to me. I look forward to helping you take your first steps in achieving your goals. I look forward to working with you.

Tracie is amazing, we've talked through so many of my underlying issues and I feel like I've had realisation after realisation for the last few sessions. The worksheets and techniques are super helpful as well.
