About Tracey
Tracey Sherron-Spies is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 11 years of experience. She practices from Mississippi and supports people facing relationship strain, family conflict, stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, and anger.
Tracey uses straightforward, goal-focused work. She meets people where immediate problems sit and helps them name what they want to change. Sessions look at patterns between people as well as individual thinking and behavior.
Her approach blends system-oriented thinking with practical tools. That means paying attention to family and relationship patterns while also using techniques that change thoughts and actions. She often draws on solution-focused strategies to set short-term goals and on cognitive behavioral ideas to reshape unhelpful thinking.
Tracey has a master’s degree in marriage and family therapy and additional graduate study. She has worked with individuals and with relationship dynamics for over a decade. Her background includes supporting people through trauma, addiction recovery, parenting stress, and blended-family challenges.
In sessions she aims to be direct and practical. Conversations center on clear steps a person can take between appointments. She also explores communication habits, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and cultural or identity concerns when those affect relationships.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Tracey commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused methods in her practice. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with concrete behavioral experiments. This approach is useful for anger, anxiety, and low mood because it links thinking, feeling, and action. Solution-focused work centers on small, achievable changes and on building steps that lead to observable improvement over weeks rather than months.She also brings a systemic or family systems lens, looking at patterns between people that keep problems repeating. Systemic thinking helps when anger shows up around relationship roles, blended family dynamics, or cycles of blame. In online sessions these perspectives guide both the conversation and the practical homework a person takes away.
Finding which approach fits is part of the process. She will work collaboratively to choose methods based on the client’s goals, preferences, and the problems they want to address. That may mean leaning into CBT exercises for immediate symptom relief or using systemic questions to shift interaction patterns.
If you are considering online care, confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. It can also allow focused, structured sessions that emphasize practice between meetings.
