ABOUT ME
I think I was 40 years old when I finally figured out what a healthy, fulfilling relationship truly looked like. Since I was only 19 when I met my first husband, you can probably guess how that relationship ended.
Honestly, it was great at first. We met, dated, then married. We bought a house, had children, established careers, and headed into our thirties like we had it all together. But we didn't. Instead, there was arguing, disappointment, isolation, & hurt, for both of us, more days than not. The marriage had become a shit show.
We spend the better part of 6 years trying to fix it. Crying, begging, pleading, accommodating, yelling, arguing, staying quite, marital counseling, and acting as if everything was okay while hoping like hell it would change……it didn’t.
I didn’t want to live like that anymore. I had to face, and answer, the hard questions. How do I change this? How is this impacting our children? What does our future look like if we keep doing the same things we’ve always done? My head was spinning, my heart was hurting, and my life was quickly passing by. But, where do I even start?
First, I got help. I managed through my feelings, sorted out my thoughts, explored my options, and figured out what I wanted to do. There were pros & cons to every option I explored, but I finally had a plan to help me get unstuck!
I want to help other women who are stuck in a "shit show" of a marriage. This isn’t typical “relationship coaching”. This is guidance & support (therapy is available if need be) from someone who has felt exactly what you're feeling and has the professional & personal credentials to back it up!
I know it feels uncomfortable to talk openly & honestly with someone about the frustration, hurt and disappointment caused by the marriage. But it definitely won’t be as uncomfortable as the marriage itself. There's a good chance we will laugh, cry, and cuss during our work together, but when we're done, you'll have clarity, peace, and a plan!
My education, clinical expertise, & personal experiences allow me to offer a higher level of guidance & support than most “relationship coaches”.
Here’s what they’re saying…

Wish I had done this sooner!
I wish I had done this sooner. Tracie helped me realized that what I wanted in a relationship was possible and I didn’t always have to be putting my feelings to the side for the sake of others.

Tracie is authentic!
Tracie is truly gifted at what she does! She quickly recognized past events and traumas that were influencing my current behaviors and thoughts. She coached me through it by focusing on current situations and emotions that were holding me back from being my best self. She listens without judgment, challenges me to see things from a different perspective, and gives me relevant ways to navigate any relationship that is sometimes difficult. On occasion, Tracie will use her own life experiences to relate to my situations which is appreciated and helps me to know she is authentic. I highly recommend relational coaching with Tracie!

I can be my imperfect self with Tracie
Tracie is the first therapist I’ve had who creates a space for me to feel comfortable to be my whole, imperfect self. I can be honest and explore complicated parts of myself, choices I’ve made, and life experiences without fear of judgement. I’ve made notable progress understanding myself and my relationships through our work together and feel more confident and free to live my life without so much pressure and anxiety. I’m grateful for her professionalism, her perspective and her guidance. I’d highly recommend Tracie to anyone looking for a therapist.
