About Tracey
Tracey Wisdom is an AASW social worker with seven years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and parenting concerns. Her practice focuses on practical steps clients can try between sessions to manage emotions and behaviours.
Tracey uses clear, structured conversations to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. She also uses client-centred techniques to keep discussions grounded in the client’s priorities.
For trauma work she incorporates EMDR-informed strategies alongside trauma-focused and solution-focused approaches. This means sessions may include grounding exercises, gradual memory processing, and short-term goals to stabilise day-to-day functioning. When relationship issues arise, elements of the Gottman Method are used to improve communication and reduce conflict cycles.
Sessions aim to be practical and directional. Tracey often sets small, measurable tasks for clients to try between meetings. She works on skills such as sleep routines, anger management techniques, and thought-recording for anxiety and low mood.
Tracey’s work also covers specific life areas like workplace stress, adoption and foster care concerns, postpartum depression, and challenges around polyamory or non-monogamous relationships. She offers straightforward coaching-style input when clients want focused problem-solving alongside therapeutic work.
How Tracey applies structured approaches online
Tracey often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. CBT sessions focus on concrete techniques such as thought records, behavioural experiments and sleep or routine planning to reduce anxiety and low mood.She also draws on EMDR-informed strategies for trauma work. EMDR approaches involve guided processing of distressing memories combined with stabilising exercises to reduce reactivity. Client-Centred Therapy is used to keep the conversation focused on the client’s priorities and to adapt pacing to what the person can manage.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tracey will discuss goals and preferences and then recommend practical methods to try. That collaborative process helps decide whether to focus on CBT techniques, trauma processing, communication skills or short-term solution-focused goals.
