Tracy Clarke, LPC

Tracy Clarke is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, ADHD, and codependency-related patterns. She also supports people dealing with caregiver strain, body image, attachment and abandonment issues, and challenges linked to autism and intellectual disability.

Tracy takes a practical, person-focused approach in sessions. She uses clear tools from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. She also draws on client-centered and attachment-based ideas to strengthen how people relate to themselves and others.

In work with addictions and co-occurring concerns she combines motivational techniques with skills training. That looks like setting small goals, practicing emotion regulation skills, and planning for high-risk situations. For trauma and dissociation she moves at a pace the person can manage, focusing on grounding and present-moment coping skills.

Tracy values a collaborative relationship. Sessions are a place to talk honestly about what is not working and to try specific steps that can change daily routines and relationships. She helps people develop clearer boundaries and stronger self-awareness without blaming them for past choices.

She completed a master’s degree at California University of Pennsylvania and is finishing a PhD in counselor education and supervision at Waynesburg University. Tracy offers services in English and accepts international clients. To begin, use the site matching tool to schedule a first session.
