About Tracy

Tracy Egger is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 26 years of experience. She practices from Connecticut and helps people with anxiety, stress, depression, family concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, panic attacks, and social anxiety and phobia.

Tracy uses straightforward conversations to clarify what feels most difficult. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and works with each person to try practical changes. Sessions focus on skills that can be used between appointments and on understanding emotional reactions in daily life.

Her background includes many years of direct clinical work helping people manage overwhelming feelings and stressful situations. That experience shapes a steady, problem-focused approach that balances short-term relief with longer-term change. Tracy pays attention to safety and to practical steps that reduce symptoms such as panic or social avoidance.

In sessions she helps people break down big problems into smaller, manageable steps. She coaches on breathing and grounding techniques for panic and on gradual exposure for social fears. She also helps people untangle family stress and build clearer communication patterns.

Tracy asks about what a person already tries and what gets in the way of progress. Together they set goals that are specific and measurable. The emphasis is on clear, doable work that can fit into a busy life.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care

Tracy works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills people can use. One common method helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns, which can reduce worry and low mood by testing thoughts against real evidence. Another approach emphasizes gradual, supported exposure to feared situations, which can help with panic and social fears by increasing tolerance in small steps.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tracy will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which techniques to try first and make small plans to test those methods between appointments.

Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, and use shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills in real-life settings and discuss those moments in the next session, which can speed learning and make changes feel more practical.
