In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
I have over 20 years of experience working with clients from a variety of backgrounds. I use humor and laughter as a way to help build rapport. I understand that is never what is wrong with a person but what happened to person that helps a person to reach their personal treatment goals.
I love working with adult clients who feeling stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about their life.

Today I had my first therapy session with Tracy Batten, and I wasn’t sure what to expect. But from the start, I felt comfortable being transparent, vulnerable, and truly myself. Her spirit, professionalism, personality, and love for Christ made me feel safe and encouraged. I’m truly looking forward to continuing this journey with her. ❤️

Although I have only been working with Tracy for a short time, I have truly enjoyed our sessions. She creates a warm and welcoming space where I feel heard. I leave each session feeling hopeful and inspired to continue learning more about myself. I am very pleased with my experience and look forward to continuing this journey with her.

Ms. Batten was very warm and inviting. I didn’t feel pressured to open up about anything, I was comfortable enough with her. Her down to earth yet authentic way of communicating made me feel at ease. Ms. Batten changed my expectations of meeting with a therapist. It was like sitting down with a good friend.
