Tracey Van Dyke

Tracey Van Dyke is an LPC with 11 years working in mental health. She focuses on helping people navigate major life shifts, manage stress, and handle relationship and parenting challenges. Her approach centers on practical steps people can use right away.

Tracey blends client-centered care with cognitive behavioral and solution-focused techniques. That means sessions tend to look at current problems, identify small changes that make a difference, and build on each person's strengths. She also incorporates trauma-focused methods when past experiences are getting in the way of daily life.

Clients come for many reasons including anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and coping with life changes. She also helps with co-dependency, attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, and issues around blended families and fatherhood. Tracey offers tailored anger management programs for individuals and groups.

Her work emphasizes clear goals and real steps. Conversations aim to be direct and supportive, with practical tools to use between sessions. Progress is tracked through changes in everyday functioning rather than jargon.

Tracey practices in Georgia and conducts sessions in English. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability. She uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How Tracey’s approaches fit into online therapy

Tracey uses client-centered therapy to focus sessions on each person's priorities and strengths, helping people feel heard and guiding the conversation toward practical changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try small behavior experiments that reduce anxiety and improve mood. Emotionally-focused elements help people name and process feelings, which can be useful for relationship issues and grief.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches that suit those goals, and adjust plans as needed. That collaborative process helps shape which tools and exercises are used in sessions and between appointments.

If you prefer online therapy, confirm current session options before booking so you know how appointments are delivered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can focus on coping with life changes and other concerns more consistently.
