About Traci
Traci White is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with five years of practice experience. She sees adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting strain, anger, and other life challenges.
She has worked in community mental health programs, in-home counseling, long-term healthcare settings, and private practice. That range of settings gives her experience with people facing PTSD, adjustment struggles, neurodiversity such as autism spectrum concerns, OCD, mood disorders, and complex co-occurring issues.
Her approach is informed by trauma and attention to attachment. Sessions focus on building trust and practical skills rather than on labels. She draws from therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based and Client-Centered methods depending on what fits.
In a typical session she helps people notice patterns, try out different coping strategies, and practice new ways of responding to anger and stress. She also works on managing sleep, eating, work strain, and relationship tension that feed emotional overwhelm.
People who prefer straightforward, skills-based work tend to do well with her style. She supports clients as they test changes, manage setbacks, and track small gains over time. To begin, people select the online therapy options button and complete a short questionnaire before scheduling a first session.
How sessions work
Approach and online session structure
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match personal values. It can be useful for managing anger, anxiety, and motivation when feelings get in the way of chosen goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills for changing unhelpful patterns such as rumination or automatic reactions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try based on goals, current problems, and preferences. That means starting with simple experiments and adjusting approaches if something isn’t helpful.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which online options are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. They also let people practice new skills in the context of daily life, then bring observations back into sessions for review and adjustment.
