Tracey’s Approach to Therapy
Tracey believes that her clients have the strengths and resources to resolve their problems and are just “stuck” when they decide to enter treatment. Tracey works closely with clients in creating goals and setting up a plan of action which helps the client achieve these identified goals. Many times there are barriers, which keep clients from achieving their goals. Tracey works closely with her clients to identify these barriers and problem solve ways to overcome the obstacles, which are keeping them from moving forward.

What to Expect in a First Session
Tracey Recommends:
From Amazon: “The Power of Habit” contains an exhilarating argument: The key to exercising regularly, losing weight, being more productive, and achieving success is understanding how habits work. As Duhigg shows, by harnessing this new science, we can transform our businesses, our communities, and our lives.”
What Tracey’s Clients are Reading:
From Amazon: “The Slight Edge” is a way of thinking, a way of processing information that enables you to make the daily choices that will lead you to the success and happiness you desire. It shows you how to create powerful results using the tools that are already within you.”
From Amazon: “Option B: Facing Adversity, Building Resilience, and Finding Joy–co-authored with psychologist and friend Adam Grant–shows you how Sandberg, and many others who have overcome a wide range of profound hardships, triumphed over tragedy. The book posits that it’s helpful to think of resilience like a muscle, one that atrophies in the calm between the storms of our lives. But there are things we can do to develop it, so we’re better prepared when adversity strikes.”
From Amazon: “The good news is that anxiety, guilt, pessimism, procrastination, low self-esteem, and other “black holes” of depression can be cured without drugs. In “Feeling Good”, eminent psychiatrist, David D. Burns, M.D., outlines the remarkable, scientifically proven techniques that will immediately lift your spirits and help you develop a positive outlook on life. Now, in this updated edition, Dr. Burns adds an All-New Consumer′s Guide To Anti-depressant Drugs as well as a new introduction to help answer your questions about the many options available for treating depression.”
