About Tracey

Tracey Boubacar is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in North Carolina with ten years of experience helping clients manage complex emotional and interpersonal challenges.

Background and approach

She focuses on issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, self-esteem, anger, addictions, and career concerns while also addressing relationship difficulties, parenting struggles, bipolar disorder, coaching needs, and compassion fatigue. Her work includes attention to LGBT concerns and other life transitions.

Tracey emphasizes culturally responsive care and brings particular understanding to veteran and armed forces issues, multicultural challenges, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination. She also assists clients facing infidelity, jealousy, and other painful relational dynamics, blending empathy with practical strategies to help people move forward.

Her orientation draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy alongside other evidence-based methods to tailor interventions to each person’s situation. In sessions she aims to honor individual stories and collaborate with clients to develop realistic, actionable plans for change.

Tracey frames therapy as a joint process of exploration and skill-building, offering steady support as clients navigate life transitions and work toward clearer goals.

Choosing approaches and accessing therapy online

Tracey uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns; this approach is often applied to anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday challenges by teaching practical coping skills. She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy, which focuses on clarifying personal values and building psychological flexibility so clients can move toward meaningful goals even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. She collaborates with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts techniques over time as problems evolve and progress is made.

Online therapy with her is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to meet consistently, integrate skills into daily life, and maintain momentum during transitions or busy periods while working with a licensed professional.
