About Tracy
Tracy Flug is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with 23 years of experience. She works primarily with adults and seniors who are coping with loss, grief, chronic illness, traumatic hospitalizations, and related emotional concerns. Tracy's practice focuses on practical problem solving and direct conversation about what is happening in daily life.
Clients can expect a straightforward, strengths-based approach. Sessions aim to identify immediate stressors and build manageable steps to reduce overwhelm. Tracy uses methods drawn from cognitive behavioral ideas and narrative work to help people reframe difficult experiences and make small changes that matter in everyday routines.
Her background includes long-term work in health settings, which informs how she addresses end-of-life care, hospice concerns, and the emotional effects of serious illness. That experience also shapes how she supports people dealing with trauma, including sexual, physical, and medical trauma.
Tracy describes her style as client-centered and solution-focused. She emphasizes honest feedback and clear goals while prioritizing clients' strengths and resources. Conversations often cover practical coping strategies, sleep and self-care routines, and ways to reduce compassion fatigue.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Her work is offered in English and follows California LCSW practice standards.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
The profile lists Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based and Client-Centered approaches as part of her practice. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or improve sleep. Attachment-Based ideas look at patterns in relationships and how early connection affects current reactions and coping. Client-Centered work emphasizes listening, reflecting back what matters to the client, and building goals from the person's own strengths.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to figure out which methods fit the client's needs, goals, and preferences, and she will adjust the focus as those needs change over time.
The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel after medical appointments. Talk with the therapist about how sessions can be scheduled and structured to match work, caregiving, and health demands.
