About Tracy
Tracy Clarke is an LPC based in Pennsylvania whose practice addresses a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD, relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, self-esteem, and career challenges.
Background and approach
She also works with complicated presentations such as bipolar disorder, eating and sleeping problems, anger, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes, as well as additional focus areas like attachment and abandonment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, codependency, domestic violence, and substance use concerns.
With six years of clinical experience, she brings both focused knowledge and a flexible approach to help clients work toward meaningful change. Her style emphasizes building a strong therapeutic alliance and tailoring interventions to each client’s needs and preferences.
Tracy blends cognitive behavioral techniques with acceptance and commitment strategies, attachment-based perspectives, client-centered care, and elements of dialectical behavior therapy. She has a long history supporting people with disabilities and specialized experience in addictions counseling, and she is completing a PhD in counselor education and supervision.
Tracy aims to collaborate with clients on concrete goals while honoring individual strengths and life context.
Evidence-based approaches for online care
Tracy commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and problematic habits. ACT emphasizes values-based action and learning to accept difficult internal experiences while committing to meaningful change, which can be useful for stress, chronic mental health challenges, and addictive behaviors.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each client to explore which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and adapts techniques over time to improve fit and effectiveness.
Online sessions are offered through several formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These options allow clients to engage from different locations and at varying times, making it easier to maintain consistency while balancing work, caregiving, or other commitments.
