About Tracey

Tracey Sherron-Spies is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who supports people facing relationship conflict, family stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, addictions, and a broad range of interpersonal and life transitions.

Background and approach

She addresses intimacy-related concerns, parenting and blended family challenges, communication problems, caregiver stress, and issues such as infidelity, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and self-esteem. Her practice also includes work with LGBT concerns, bipolar disorder, eating issues, seasonal affective disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related struggles.

Drawing on 11 years of clinical experience, she uses practical, goal-oriented methods to help clients identify patterns and develop new coping strategies. Tracey blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with solution-focused and systemic approaches to target current problems, strengthen relationships, and build skills for managing emotions and stress.

She works collaboratively with clients to clarify priorities and tailor interventions to each situation rather than relying on a single technique. Based in Mississippi, Tracey brings training in marriage and family therapy and emphasizes a respectful, strengths-based stance.

She welcomes international clients in English and offers multiple online formats to accommodate different schedules and preferences.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Tracey uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is practical for anxiety, depression, stress, and many day-to-day coping challenges. Solution-Focused Therapy is also part of her toolkit and centers on identifying strengths and small, achievable steps that move clients toward their goals, making it useful when clients want clear, forward-looking progress.

She also applies systemic ideas to consider how relationships and family patterns influence an individual’s experience, which can be especially helpful for resolving communication problems, blended family issues, and caregiver stress. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - she will work with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals and then tailor techniques so the therapy fits the person rather than expecting the person to fit a single method.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for those juggling work, family, or travel. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access therapy from different locations, while allowing the therapist and client to select the medium that best supports engagement and progress.
