About me

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas and I have been providing therapeutic services to teens for about twenty five years. I started providing services to youth in various summer camps and skills training classes. After graduation I worked with various entities providing skills based training and counseling services to at risk youth. I have also worked with foster children and understand the difficulties of being in foster care. My therapeutic style is down to earth, warm, caring, compassionate, straight forward, and non-judgmental. I enjoy working with teenagers and am skilled at helping them through the developmental stages of becoming a successful
adult and any additional difficulties that life brings forth. Through the years I have helped many kids with ADHD, ADD, behavioral issues, relationship conflicts with family/friends, bullying, self-esteem, goal setting, depression, anxiety and trauma. My therapeutic approach is through cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, mindfulness, and EMDR Therapy. I also provide assistance to parents struggling to understand what is occurring with their child, providing parenting skills as necessary and educational information regarding diagnosis and treatment. Together, we can all work to help your teen become a successful adult who will thrive in life. I look forward to partnering with you and working with your child.

Tracy has been my life saver for these few years of being my therapist. I would not have been able to get through some of my life struggles through these years, had it not been for her being there responding promptly to moments of uncertainties wich had included panic and anxiety attacks, and cheering me on when I get past a miestone of life goals.

Tracy is one of the most kind and understanding people I have ever met! It’s obvious she really cares about her patients and has the knowledge and demeanor to help work through deep and difficult emotions.

Written on Nov 22, 2022 after therapy with Tracy for 3 years and 7 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety

Tracy is amazing to work with. She truly cares about her clients and makes it clear that this is more than just a job for her. She has been an incredible support for me -- listening, offering helpful feedback, and willing to go the extra mile when I need some extra support. After a number of bad experiences with therapists, it's been a God-send to find someone with a trauma specialty who can offer a therapeutic modality better suited to addressing deeply rooted trauma issues than just talk therapy or CBT. I'm very grateful to have been connected with Tracy.

It’s been a challenge with our daughter especially in the beginning of this process but I can say Tracy has helped tremendously. She responds quickly to our concerns and questions.

New to counseling and new to Tracey, but my experience is already positive and would highly recommend. I should have done this 20 years ago.

Tracy is thoughtful of my needs and knowledgeable in the latest counseling techniques.

Written on Dec 04, 2019 after therapy with Tracy for 1 year on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, and intimacy-related issues

I started seeing Tracy about a year ago and the changes I've seen in my life are incredible. I wasn't initially set up with her, and had a pretty terrible experience with the first counselor, so I was apprehensive when I decided to start over and started looking for a new one on this platform. I mulled it over for days, and Tracy always ended up at the top of my list for potential counselors, and I finally chose her. I can't imagine what things would have been like if I hadn't! She's helped me work through all kinds of things, and was very focused on helping me process through my PTSD using EMDR Therapy. On top of that, she's always been there to give me whatever advice I may need. I truly believe the best part about working with Tracy is that she's never once told me what to do. She always hears me out, and REALLY listens to what I'm saying, then offers what she determines are the best solutions, and allows me to make a choice. She notices things I don't and really opened my eyes in a lot of situations that I'd probably still be in if it wasn't for her. In the last year, I have never once felt judged or like she couldn't understand what I was going through. She honestly helped me change my life and I will forever be grateful for finding her. She's very easy to talk to, and has always been available when I've needed her.

Tracy is a great counselor. She is a great listener and a very good advice-giver. After our sessions life always seems better.

Tracy is just so amazing. One thing I really like is that there's always a kind of relaxed vibe. I don't feel like my problems are the only thing that matter anymore. We also talk about things I like and about different cultures and just a lot of things. While talking about those things we often find things that we could still work on or things that could be really helpful. She doesn't just feel like my counselor, but also a friend. I'm so thankful for everything she has done and I appreciate her so so much.

How to start? Tracy has been such an incredible counselor. I have learned so much about myself during this process. She has taught me about taking care of myself. Also when I was struggling with anxiety, she was so helpful. I really enjoyed all this process with her and I definitely refined her.

Tracy Simpson is amazing! We are doing EMDR therapy and it has helped me more than I could have ever hoped for. Tracy is very skilled. I trust her completely. I love that she helps me keep my faith as a priority in everything we talk about. I am so very thankful for her. I recommend her to friends all the time.

I've been talking with Tracy for about a month now and she has been so supportive and helpful! She talks with you in a nurturing and respectful manner. It feels very natural to talk to her, like if I was talking to a friend. I would recommend her to anybody!

A good listener and gives advice like a parent and a professional at the same, very understanding.

Written on Dec 16, 2018 after therapy with Tracy for 2 weeks

Talking to Tracy really helped me to reflect on my life and speak about it as I truly saw it without feeling judged. I opened up and was able to identify the areas that needed attention immediately, but also she helped me to realize that I can hand things over to God so that I don't carry the burden on my own. I have talked with her for almost 3 weeks and I feel so much better.

Work with me!
