Our Approach
TRACY C. RAMEY, LCSW
One of the most important aspects of Tracy’s approach to therapy is offering a non-judgmental and safe place for all clients, children, adolescents and adults, to process their concerns in a collaborative effort. Tracy has specialized in therapy with children and their families, with a focus in childhood trauma for the past 7 years. Tracy offers TF-CBT (Trauma Focused – Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), which helps children better cope with their traumas. Tracy’s work with adolescents, adults and couples, uses various therapeutic techniques, while validating each individual’s struggles with a healthy balance of exploration into dysfunctional patterns. Tracy is very excited to present to her practice the ability to offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitzation Reprocessing).
Tracy holds a Master’s Degree in Social Work from Fordham University and currently maintains her clinical social work licensure in the state of Connecticut.
