Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Nacogdoches, TX

Hello, I’m Tracy, a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 25 years of experience walking alongside children, teens, and families.

In our sessions, you’ll find a calm, welcoming space where you can exhale, feel heard, and begin to make sense of what’s going on. I work especially with teens and young adults facing anxiety, mild depression, low self-esteem, school pressures, or life transitions like divorce or moving. Together, we process what's been going on, build practical coping skills, and create a path forward so you can feel more confident, steady, and in control again.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent decades as a teacher, school counselor, and administrator, so I understand what it feels like when school stress, family changes, or big emotions start to feel overwhelming.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 13 years of experience working with teens (13+), adults, active military, and veterans.

I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and autism. I also work with LGBTQ+ clients. I use CBT, DBT, ACT, and solution-focused therapy, but I don't take a one-size-fits-all approach. I focus on getting to the root of what's going on and figuring out what actually works for you.

You don't have to have it all figured out to start. You just have to show up. I'll do the work with you, no judgment, no pretense.

If you're ready, I'm here.

Clients should know that I believe everyone has strengths and the ability to create positive change. My approach is supportive, respectful, and focused on what’s working rather than what’s wrong. I see therapy as a collaborative process where we set clear goals, highlight your progress, and build practical solutions that fit your life. You can expect a safe, nonjudgmental space where your voice matters and where we work together to move toward hope, healing, and growth.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master’s degree in Social Work and over five years of experience supporting adults ages 18 to 100. I specialize in working with individuals navigating chronic illness, chronic pain, addiction, complex grief, end-of-life concerns, and trauma.

I believe in meeting clients where they are, honoring their unique experiences, needs, and goals. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and non-judgmental, creating a caring and encouraging therapeutic environment where clients feel safe to explore challenges and develop meaningful coping skills. Through secure telehealth sessions, I work alongside clients to help them build resilience, find balance, and move toward the goals that matter most to them.

I work with individuals/couples/families seeking to restore balance and connection within their lives and interpersonal relationships. Unhealthy relationships can cause both emotional and physical stress, whereas healthy relationships can enhance and improve overall well-being. I have trained in a range of modalities in order to provide tailored treatment plan that can be integrated into your daily lives.

I have experience treating children, adolescents and adults with diverse back grounds and ranges of concerns. I provide psychotherapy for couples in all states of relationship, work with divorced and single parents, blended families and individuals of every race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation.

I offer individual and relational therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, behavioral and relationship issues using clinically tested and evidenced based interventions.

Taking the step to seek support isn’t easy, and I want to honor the courage it takes to be here. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Life Coach, and retired Army veteran who believes caring for your mental health is essential to living a balanced, fulfilling life. I’m passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges, build resilience, and reconnect with themselves. I work with teens and adults who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or major life transitions, and I strive to meet you with respect, compassion, and understanding.
