Tracee Anderson

My communication style

Taking the step to speak to a counselor takes courage. I respect this, and I am here to support you. I will actively listen and ask questions in a way that helps you look at the wide array of variables affecting your life experience. I am gentle and affirmative yet can also be direct.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was more interested in the challenging experiences people have in life, so I switched to psychology with a secondary focus in neurology. I strongly felt that I wanted to use my education about the mind and the body to become a therapist. I miss seeing clients for clinical work.

My goals for you

I believe it is important for you to clarify your goals for working with me in the first session and then periodically check in to see if you are getting what you wanted or if you need to revise your goals. Therapeutic goals can be very specific and require prompt actions, or therapy can be a place to process and get support.

Our first session

During the first session, I will ask you to describe what led you to set up the appointment and what your goals for treatment are. I may ask specific questions about your current situation, feelings, past, support, physical health, strengths, risks, and any past traumas. At the end, there will be time for you to ask questions.
