About Tracey
Tracey Beaty is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing with a focus on trauma and abuse, self esteem, bipolar disorder, depression, and coping with life changes. She brings 15 years of experience to sessions and works with people who are navigating mood disorders and the effects of past trauma.
Tracey aims to make the first conversation straightforward and respectful so people feel heard right away.
Background and approach
Her work is practical and down to earth. She listens first, then helps clients set clear goals. Tracey uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address negative thinking and to build everyday coping skills.
She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a warm, nonjudgmental space and Motivational Interviewing to support change when motivation feels low. Tracey has particular experience with issues connected to abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, domestic violence, and sexual assault and abuse. She also helps people manage seasonal patterns like Seasonal Affective Disorder and other mood-related challenges.
Her style emphasizes dignity, trust, and steady support as clients work through difficult experiences. Sessions can focus on short-term coping strategies or longer-term healing, depending on what a person needs. Tracey practices in North Carolina and speaks English.
Her approach is collaborative - she and the client decide what feels most helpful as therapy progresses. People who choose her often want straightforward guidance, practical skills, and a therapist who listens closely. Tracey aims to help people build better daily routines, more balanced thinking, and clearer steps forward.

Online support
How her approaches work online and in sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on providing a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person guides the conversation and the therapist offers empathy and understanding. This approach helps people feel heard and can be especially useful when processing trauma or delicate relationship issues.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets unhelpful thoughts and habits and replaces them with more balanced thinking and practical actions. It tends to help with depression, bipolar mood episodes, and everyday coping when people want concrete steps to change patterns.
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, gentle method for building motivation to change. It helps when someone feels stuck or uncertain about moving forward and pairs well with goal-focused work from CBT.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Tracey will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then recommend a path that fits. The plan can change over time as needs evolve and progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging are practical for brief updates, real-time support between sessions, or people who prefer typing their thoughts. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy routines.
