Tracy Clarke, LPC

Tracy Clarke is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with six years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, addiction, depression, and relationship and intimacy concerns. She also supports those coping with grief, career stress, ADHD, and changes like separation or divorce.

Tracy trained at California University of Pennsylvania and is finishing a PhD in counselor education and supervision at Waynesburg University. She uses straightforward, evidence-informed approaches in sessions. Those methods include cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, and a person-centered stance that keeps the client's goals central.

In practice she uses a mix of strategies drawn from CBT, ACT, dialectical behavior ideas, attachment-based work, and client-centered therapy. That mix helps with managing strong emotions, changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and improving communication in relationships. She also brings experience supporting people with addictions and with neurodiversity such as autism.

Sessions focus on building a working relationship and practical, teachable skills. Expect clear discussion of goals, simple behavioral experiments or skill practice, and attention to patterns that keep problems going. Tracy emphasizes collaborative planning so the work fits the client’s life and priorities.

Clients can expect straightforward talk, skill-building, and attention to both immediate coping and longer-term change. Tracy’s background includes work with adults who have complex needs, and she combines clinical approaches to match what the person wants to work on.
