About Tracy

Tracy Scott is an AASW social worker with six years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and career concerns. She welcomes straightforward conversations and aims to make the first steps into therapy less daunting for people who are feeling overwhelmed.

Tracy focuses on practical problem-solving alongside emotional understanding. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs, with simple, achievable goals and tools to use between meetings. She pays attention to how life changes, grief and workplace pressures affect mood and motivation.

Her background includes work with people experiencing depression, uncertainty about career direction, and coping with major life transitions. Tracy also has experience with attachment issues, dissociation, body image and codependency concerns, among other focus areas. She draws on what works in the moment rather than a fixed formula.

Therapy with Tracy tends to be conversational and goal-oriented. She uses listening, gentle challenge and practical techniques to build confidence and reduce unhelpful thinking and behaviours. Clients can expect a respectful and compassionate approach that adapts as progress is made.

Tracy encourages people to take small steps and to bring what matters most into sessions. She asks about real-life routines and supports changes that fit each person’s day-to-day life.

How Tracy’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience and building a trusting working relationship. It involves open listening, reflecting what matters to you, and shaping sessions around your priorities so you feel heard and understood.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It uses simple exercises and practical reframes to reduce worry and lift mood, which can be helpful for anxiety, stress and low self-esteem.

Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to the present moment through short exercises and noticing habits of mind. It supports people who want to reduce rumination and increase calm in everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That may mean combining gentle listening with concrete CBT tasks or adding mindfulness practices between sessions.

Session options are not specified here, so please confirm current formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, save travel time and allow check-ins during breaks or between commitments. They also let people try different tools at home and then discuss practical changes in the next meeting.
