I am so happy that I found Tracy McKenney. She listens to me, and does not judge me. I have full faith in her abilities to help me navigate life and my trauma. I especially love the fact that she has so much experience working with people that have dissociative disorders and C-PTSD.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Tracy is great to talk to. She is a great listener, understanding and very supportive.
Kind and compassionate is how I would describe Tracy. She actively works to assess what I need in a session and works with me to make it happen.
Very helpful
Tracy is amazing. She listens to you and makes you feel heard. She suggests good solutions and has helped me a lot.
Tracy has a way of adapting to your situation. In my case a lot of things have shifted my perspective and focus from one session to the next. She’s very willing to absorb your pain and be a person who shares deep empathy in your toughest moments. Looking forward to navigating this process with someone who objectively seeks out the best possibilities and therapies to address very difficult life situations.
Tracy tackles therapy in a logical way that is also empathetic; the perfect combo for a therapist.
Tracy is amazing at what she does. She is so easy to relate to which makes you so comfortable telling her personal things.
Very happy with Tracy’s counsel!
She’s great! Very respectful even when diving into touchy topics. Easy to talk to and responds in a timely manner!
Great communication. Good insight into areas I didn’t think I struggled in. She provided me with quality resources to help better understand myself. Not only that but provided me with realistic solutions. Also provided me with plenty of worksheets / homework to help keep me busy and focused between sessions.
She listens to my needs and supports me with great therapy whenever I need it in a timely and thoughtful manner. I have made great progress and healing with her help and guidance.
I really enjoy my sessions with Tracy. She is knowledgeable, gentle, and caring. She allows me to process my inner thoughts and gives me tools to do so. I appreciate her greatly.
I love Tracy as my therapist. She is so understanding. She has given me wonderful advice. I feel so much better.
I had never done therapy before, I get so nervous and then I start talking with Tracy and I feel safe, comfortable and heard. She has really truly listened and cared and offered some invaluable insight. Highly highly recommend

Tracy is such a thoughtful Therapist, really seeming to share her expertise out of a place of support and love. If you're in a bad place, she's open to you, your experiences, and your thoughts.

Very understanding, down to earth and helpful
Tracy is quite knowledgeable regarding practical advice and theory.
She is amazing. Could not have asked for a better therapist
Tracy is the only therapist I’ve seen that understands my concerns and can offer the support I need. In our second session, she was able to tune into a trait I possess that I had never been aware of before. It was the most helpful piece of information I’ve received in therapy in years of trying. I’m so thankful she brought this to my attention, and I appreciate her doing so in a kind and supportive manner.
Tracy is a really great listener. She has helped me so much.
Tracy is smart, a great listener, and responsive to my needs.
