About Tracy

Tracy Grothe is a licensed mental health clinician in Nebraska who brings 25 years of experience to clients navigating relationship struggles, grief and loss, career transitions, and major life changes.

Background and approach

She emphasizes a collaborative stance, viewing each person as the expert on their own story and building on individual strengths to address challenges such as intimacy concerns, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, and depression.

Her practice also attends to related areas like attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, body image, and finding life purpose. Tracy integrates evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centered approaches, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to tailor care to each client’s needs.

She recognizes that beginning therapy takes courage and aims to create a respectful, strengths-oriented space where practical skills and insight work together. Sessions are offered through several online formats to fit different schedules, and payment follows a subscription model that may vary with location and therapist availability.

Practical Approaches for Online Emotional Support



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new ways of responding; it often helps people manage anxiety, depression, and behavior changes by teaching concrete skills and homework strategies. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and respect for each person’s perspective, helping clients explore their goals at their own pace while feeling heard and understood. Mindfulness therapy encourages present-moment awareness and acceptance techniques that can reduce stress, improve emotional regulation, and support coping during times of change.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time so sessions remain practical and relevant to the individual’s situation.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules and to continue work during life transitions. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver counseling, teach skills, and support progress without requiring travel, while still enabling regular contact and practical follow-up between appointments.
