About Tracy

Tracy Flug is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with 23 years of experience in the field of health. She works primarily with adults and seniors, bringing focused expertise to challenges related to loss, grief, end-of-life concerns, traumatic hospitalizations, chronic illness, and post-traumatic stress. Tracy also addresses emotional, physical, and sexual trauma through therapies tailored to each person's history and needs.

She emphasizes the importance of self-care and supports people who are ready to make changes in their lives. Taking a strengths-based, client-centered stance, Tracy creates a nonjudgmental environment while maintaining honesty, integrity, and transparency in the therapeutic relationship. Her approach aims to help people feel seen and heard as they navigate difficult transitions and intense emotions.

Tracy uses evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), grief therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. These techniques are applied with sensitivity to each individual situation, whether addressing chronic health concerns, traumatic experiences, or bereavement. Prospective clients are invited to reach out if it appears Tracy may be a good fit, and she will explore goals and options collaboratively with them.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Tracy integrates several established therapeutic approaches to meet the needs of clients seeking support online. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating - it helps people understand attachment needs, improve relationships, and heal from losses rooted in attachment wounds. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, empathetic stance in which the therapist follows the client's lead and helps amplify personal strengths and self-directed growth, a fit for those seeking a validating, collaborative space. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors by teaching practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress-related symptoms.



Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Tracy works collaboratively with each person to identify methods that align with their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.



Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call or phone, and shorter check-ins can happen via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, manage health or mobility limitations, and maintain continuity of care, while allowing licensed professionals and therapists to tailor support to each individual's needs.
