Hello, my name is Tracy Elliott. I am a Licensed Associate Marriage and Family therapist under the supervision of Dr. Nancy Frigaard. For more than 25 years I have worked in various helping positions. It is my passion to help people restore relationships and build stronger marriages and families.

I make it a priority to provide that safe space to process your emotions, talk through your circumstances, your trauma, or even your past hurts to bring healing.

I am an EMDR therapist who works to find the root causes for client’s symptoms. My goal is to help the client discover the root of what’s causing distress and work to heal the root and not just treat the symptoms.

Together, we can collaborate to create sustainable change with clear goals and outcomes for the therapy process.
