About Tracie
Tracie Harris is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Texas with five years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, coping with life changes, grief, and career concerns. Tracie also supports people dealing with chronic pain or illness, communication problems, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose.
Her style is collaborative and practical. She helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits, practice different responses, and build skills that fit daily life. Sessions are straightforward and goal-focused, with attention to what is working and what needs to change.
Tracie uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify thinking patterns that keep them stuck and try new, testable behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills offer concrete tools for managing intense emotions and improving communication.
She also draws on client-centered work and mindfulness to increase emotional awareness, and motivational interviewing to support change when motivation feels low. The emphasis is on short, practical exercises and steady skill-building rather than lengthy theory.
People who reach out can expect clear explanations about why a technique is being used and what to practice between sessions. Tracie invites clients to set realistic goals and track small steps toward them. The focus is on usable skills that make daily life more manageable.
How Tracie uses CBT, DBT, and client-centered work online
Tracie often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors in everyday situations. CBT breaks problems into small, concrete steps so clients can try changes and see what works in short cycles. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's priorities so interventions reflect what matters to them. This helps set clear goals based on the person's own concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy provides practical skills for handling strong emotions, improving communication, and reducing impulsive reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tracie treats the choice of methods as collaborative. She will discuss options, try techniques, and adjust based on what the client notices and wants to change. The goal is to match tools to real-life needs rather than to follow a fixed plan.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten travel time, and allow for check-ins when a quick conversation will help. When deciding on a format, consider practical issues like needing a shorter check-in, preferring not to use video, or fitting a session into a work break. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so skills can be practiced between meetings.
