Tracie Gillispie, LPC

Tracie Gillispie is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma. She brings 23 years of experience to sessions and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship concerns. Tracie aims to create a calm, straightforward space where clients can work toward clearer goals and better day-to-day coping.

She uses practical, evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide sessions. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, try small behavior changes, and clarify personal values. Sessions emphasize skills you can use between appointments to reduce distress and build stability.

Her background includes long experience supporting people through parenting challenges, grief, eating and sleep problems, and life transitions like separation or adoption-related issues. Tracie also addresses intimacy and communication concerns, codependency, and caregiver stress. She listens for underlying attachment patterns that shape how people relate to important others.

Tracie takes a collaborative approach. She treats clients as the experts on their lives and helps them find practical steps that match their goals. Conversations are direct but respectful, focused on what will help most in daily life.

Therapy with Tracie may include short-term skills work or longer-term exploration depending on what a person needs. She offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences.

Online approaches that build skills and clarity

Tracie often works with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or sleep problems. ACT helps people clarify what matters most to them and take steps that line up with those values, useful for coping with stress and life transitions.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to understand how early relationship patterns shape current communication and intimacy difficulties. That approach can help people recognize and shift long-standing interaction styles that contribute to conflict or feeling distant from others. Choosing an approach is collaborative; the therapist and client will discuss goals and try methods that fit the person's needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face work when visual cues matter. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a brief check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can support ongoing coaching, skill reminders, or shorter reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep momentum between appointments.
