About Traci
Traci White is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family issues, grief, and career challenges. She lists young adult issues among her focus areas and often supports people navigating early adult transitions.
Traci has worked in community mental health programs, provided in-home counseling, supported clients in long-term healthcare settings, and practiced in private settings. That range means she has experience with a wide set of life circumstances, from domestic violence survivors to people managing mood and anxiety disorders. She also notes experience with autism spectrum presentations and co-occurring conditions.
In sessions she uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Her work emphasizes understanding how past experiences affect present behavior and emotions. She helps people identify patterns, practice new skills, and set small, manageable goals.
Traci describes her approach as trauma-informed and nonjudgmental. She focuses on building trust so clients can address difficult memories, reduce unhelpful behaviors, and increase emotional regulation. Sessions aim to be practical, with concrete strategies to manage symptoms and daily stressors.

How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them and then take actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and making decisions during life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with practical homework and behavior experiments. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to see which methods fit their goals, needs, and day-to-day life. This means trying ideas in session, adjusting techniques, and agreeing on short-term goals together.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around classes, work, or caregiving by removing commute time and allowing flexible scheduling. Some approaches translate well to remote work because they use talk-based skill practice and short between-session exercises. Ask about what session structures are available when completing the matching questionnaire so sessions can fit practical needs and preferences.
