My current credentials are as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Licensed Professional Art Therapist (LPAT), Board Certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC), and Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC). As an immigrant myself, I understand the multi-level variables that take place when adapting to a new culture. Besides, speaking English I am fluent in Spanish and I enjoy working with my Spanish-speaking community. Throughout my years in the mental health field, I have worked with children of diverse ages providing social skills and I have over seven years of experience working for adults in the ID/DD population in both, community and residential settings.

Tracie Kritch

Tracie Kritch

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


My clinical background spans some of the most intense and intimate settings in social work — hospice care, hospitals, prisons, schools, and special education. What connects all of it is the human experience of loss: loss of a loved one, loss of health, loss of freedom, loss of the future you expected.

Grief is the center of my work. I specialize in end-of-life concerns, bereavement, anticipatory grief, and the complicated feelings that come with chronic illness, major transitions, and life's hardest chapters. I also work with adolescents, adults, and seniors on anxiety, depression, maternal mental health, and women's issues.

I'm licensed in both New Jersey and South Carolina and bring the perspective of someone who has been present with people in their most vulnerable moments — with compassion, not clinical distance.
