Tracy Gill, LPC

Tracy Gill is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with seven years of counseling experience. She practices in Mississippi and supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship concerns, grief, parenting strain, and blended family issues.

She holds a Master of Education in community counseling from Southeastern Louisiana University and a BS from the University of Southern Mississippi. After her masters degree she spent eleven years working as a Child Protective Services worker for the State of Louisiana. That work shaped her interest in counseling and her approach to difficult family situations.

Tracy has provided counseling through a federally funded non-profit program serving survivors of sexual abuse, rape, and domestic violence. She has worked extensively with people who have experienced trauma and abuse. Her background includes helping clients manage the emotional aftermath of those experiences and find practical ways to cope day to day.

In sessions she uses straightforward, person-focused methods. She draws on client-centered work to build rapport and on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also uses trauma-focused methods to address past harm and DBT skills for emotion regulation when needed.

Her style is plain and practical. She helps people identify manageable steps, practice new skills, and track small changes over time. Many clients look to her for guidance when life changes, relationship challenges, or family transitions feel overwhelming.
