Tracey Byram, LPC

Tracey Byram is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 27 years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, grief, and trauma. She talks plainly and focuses on practical steps clients can use between sessions. Tracey also supports people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, ADHD, and concerns about self-esteem and body image.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based approaches. Sessions aim to identify unhelpful thinking patterns, build new coping skills, and strengthen relationships and emotion regulation. She balances goal-focused work with space to process difficult emotions.

Tracey has long experience working with LGBT clients and people affected by adoption, foster care, and attachment issues. She has also supported those living with chronic illness, caregiver stress, and substance use concerns. Her background includes years of using animal-assisted activities in practice, often with rescued labradors and golden retrievers.

Her style is warm and down-to-earth. She listens first, then offers clear strategies and homework that fit everyday life. Many people come for help with sleep, eating, anger, or coping with major life changes.

Tracey practices in Georgia and holds the LPC credential. She offers sessions in English and uses a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. The subscription model for sessions can be canceled at any time.

How online approaches and methods are used in therapy

Tracey commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change patterns of thinking and behavior that increase anxiety or low mood. CBT breaks problems into clear steps so clients can try new skills and see what helps.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take meaningful action despite difficult feelings. ACT focuses on living in line with what matters while learning to accept uncomfortable thoughts and sensations.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tracey will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, and she adjusts plans as progress unfolds. Clients help set goals and pick skills to practice between sessions.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people see facial cues and hold longer sessions, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera, and live chat or text-based messaging can be used for shorter check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, school, caregiving, or mobility limits while keeping the focus on useful, practical steps.
