About Tracey
Tracey Bratton is an LCSW with 12 years of clinical social work experience and a long background in nursing. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, compassion fatigue, addiction, grief, anger, and life changes. She also supports those facing parenting challenges, ADHD concerns, career shifts, and caregiving strain.
Her style is warm and steady. Sessions focus on the person’s pace and goals. She makes space for faith-based reflection when a client wants that element included, but it is never assumed.
Background and approach
Tracey uses a mix of practical approaches to meet each person where they are. She draws on somatic work to bring attention to body-based responses, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior, and attachment-focused ideas to address relational patterns. Client-centered and acceptance and commitment therapy ideas shape how she helps people notice values and take meaningful action.
She brings experience supporting people through adoption and foster care issues, blended family challenges, aging and geriatric concerns, chronic illness and pain, hospice and end-of-life matters, and recovery from domestic violence and substance problems. Communication issues, family of origin work, and caregiving burnout are also areas she addresses.
Tracey describes herself as a steady partner in healing who values gratitude, creativity, and hope. She aims to help people rebuild balance, reconnect with strengths, and move toward practical, sustainable change.
How these approaches translate to online work
Tracey integrates somatic work and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in ways that adapt to an online setting. Somatic approaches invite attention to bodily signals and simple grounding practices that can be done in session, helping with trauma responses, anxiety, and stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings, clarifying values, and taking action aligned with what matters, which helps with depression, burnout, and life transitions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to try techniques, notice what helps, and adjust the plan based on needs, goals, and comfort. The aim is to blend body-based practices, cognitive tools, and relational work into a tailored path forward.
Confirm the exact session options before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth options. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and tools to work well in different session styles, and Tracey will help determine which methods suit daily life and routines.
