About Tracy

Tracy Herriott is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 25 years of experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship problems, grief, addictions, and parenting or intimacy-related issues. She also supports people facing caregiving stress, cancer, aging concerns, and other life transitions, including those from diverse cultural backgrounds.

Her approach is practical and respectful. Tracy uses methods like cognitive behavioral work, acceptance and commitment ideas, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to help people notice what matters and make small, steady changes. Sessions focus on clear goals, skills you can practice between meetings, and real-world problem solving.

Tracy has provided treatment across community programs, inpatient and outpatient settings, partial hospital care, and private practice. That range informs how she shapes treatment plans for each person. She aims to be sensitive to differences in culture, sexual orientation, and life experience while tailoring care to individual needs.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She invites clients to identify priorities, try tools in their daily life, and review what helps. Tracy emphasizes compassionate care and practical steps toward progress.

People who choose her can expect a focus on workable strategies, clear communication, and an emphasis on coping skills for both acute and long-term challenges.

Approaches that translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that match those values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by focusing on meaningful steps rather than getting stuck on difficult thoughts.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical skills to change patterns that cause distress. It is commonly used for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress by giving clear tools to practice between sessions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, which can be helpful for intense emotions, relationship conflict, and coping with trauma or loss.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tracy will work collaboratively to match methods to a person's needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is tracked.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session formats offered before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can meet from their chosen location. Licensed professionals can use the same skills-focused methods online to help people build coping strategies and make measurable changes.
