About Tracy
Tracy Ferezan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, and self-esteem concerns. She is a queer ally who emphasizes adaptability and steady progress. Tracy frames therapy in straightforward terms and aims to help people take practical steps forward.
She uses methods that focus on changing thoughts and behaviors, building motivation for change, and addressing trauma. Those approaches guide session work, whether the priority is coping with anxiety, managing substance use, or healing after abuse.
How Tracy works
Tracy helps people set clear, achievable goals and tracks small wins along the way. Tracy has seven years of clinical experience across community behavioral health, independent practice, residential services, and intensive outpatient settings. Her background includes work in addiction and recovery, and she has a history of advocacy that began early in life.
She brings that advocacy into therapy by supporting clients who face prejudice, discrimination, or identity-related stress. She grew up in a military family and lived in several places, including time in Europe, before settling in New Orleans. That varied background shapes her flexible approach to care and her belief that people can adapt and change.
The dragonfly is a personal symbol she often wears and mentions as a reminder of resilience. To begin, she asks people to pick the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. Scheduling is then arranged according to therapist availability and the subscription terms used for sessions.

Online support options
How her approaches shape online work
Tracy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to guide much of her clinical work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their reasons for change and build internal motivation, which is useful for substance use and other behavior changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tracy will collaborate with each person to match techniques to their goals and preferences. She checks in on what is and isn’t helpful and adjusts the plan so it fits the client's needs over time.
Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people meet from quieter surroundings or avoid video when they prefer a phone conversation. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and Motivational Interviewing to work well at a distance, focusing on practical strategies, goal setting, and skill building to support everyday change.
