About Tracey

Tracey Sherron-Spies is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who supports people facing relationship strain, family conflict, stress, anxiety, anger, and related life challenges. She describes therapy as a place to be heard and to work toward clearer communication and calmer reactions. She aims to create straightforward, practical sessions for people who feel stuck or overwhelmed.

She uses tools from cognitive behavioral work to help clients notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Solution-focused techniques help set short-term goals and build on what already works. Systemic ideas guide conversations about how relationships and family patterns affect what someone is struggling with.

Tracey earned a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and has worked in the field for 11 years. Her background includes helping people with addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy concerns, eating issues, parenting and caregiver stress, and mood disorders such as depression and bipolar. She also addresses LGBT concerns, multicultural issues, and life transitions.

In sessions she focuses on clear steps clients can try between meetings, and on improving communication in relationships. She pays attention to family of origin issues, blended family dynamics, forgiveness work, and rebuilding trust after infidelity.

Tracey practices from Mississippi and offers services in English. She welcomes clients who need help with self-esteem, career shifts, compassion fatigue, ADHD, seasonal affective disorder, and young adult concerns. Her approach emphasizes practical change and collaboration.

How Tracey Uses Approaches in Online Therapy

Tracey draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients notice patterns of thinking and behavior that fuel stress, anxiety, anger, or low mood. This approach breaks problems into manageable parts and builds practical skills to test between sessions.

She also uses solution-focused therapy to set small, achievable goals quickly. That work highlights existing strengths and creates change through brief, targeted steps that fit a client’s life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most. This collaborative process makes it easier to focus on communication, boundary setting, or managing intense emotions depending on the person’s needs.

The original biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce time spent traveling, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people use that flexibility to keep momentum between appointments while they try practical exercises and communication strategies learned in sessions.
