    About Tracey

    Tracey Boubacar is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina with ten years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, and issues around relationships and parenting. She also supports those facing addictions, bipolar challenges, and the strain of life transitions.

    Tracey makes space for people affected by multicultural stress and prejudice. She has experience supporting military veterans and addressing concerns like infidelity and jealousy. Her style is warm and direct, focused on clear steps rather than long lectures.

    In sessions she listens first and asks questions to understand each person’s story. She uses practical tools from approaches such as Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. These methods are used to help people set goals, manage difficult feelings, and try new behaviors.

    Tracey pays attention to how culture and identity shape stress and coping. She works with people who are LGBTQ and with those facing career or compassion fatigue concerns. Her work combines short-term problem solving with longer-term skills practice.

    People who choose her often want straightforward support and a collaborative plan. She encourages small changes that fit daily life. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability.

  2. How tracey uses evidence-based approaches online

    Tracey draws from Motivational Interviewing to support people who feel stuck or ambivalent about change. This style uses open questions and reflective listening to help clarify what matters most and to motivate next steps. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed, and focus on values-based actions that matter to them.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tracey will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. The plan can change as progress is made, and she aims to keep the process collaborative and practical.

    Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking so you know which online formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also make it possible to work with a licensed professional in North Carolina even if you are located elsewhere, including internationally when arrangements allow.
