Tracey Wingold, LCSW

You feel overwhelmed, irritable, exhausted. Maybe you are raising kids and trying desperately to maintain a relationship and find time for yourself. Perhaps you are surviving through a lot of physical and emotional changes in your life as you age.  Perhaps you are pregnant or postpartum and struggling with lots of anxiety and some depression and scary thoughts. You don’t really understand how you are feeling, and the ways you’ve been coping are no longer working to help you feel better. You just want to feel like yourself again.
 

The good news is, I can help. I’ve been Licensed as a Clinical Social worker for 22 years. I specialize in working with women in all life stages, from the perinatal period through the menopause years, with an understanding of the influence of hormones and physical changes we experience.   I also work with adults struggling with symptoms of depression, anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions, and trauma.  My clients describe me as compassionate, understanding and easy to talk with. My style will help you focus on your strengths, understand yourself better, and explore your patterns. You will also learn to be gentle with yourself as you make the necessary changes to feel better.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Virginia, and work with clients throughout the state via my HIPAA-compliant, easy-to-use teletherapy platform.  In addition, I recently added the option for in person sessions in my convenient Carytown location!  My past professional experience has taken me into schools, healthcare, and nonprofit organizations. This breadth of experience gives me a unique advantage when my clients are navigating the systems that affect their lives and families. Of particular interest to me is the emotional journey of individuals through pregnancy and early parenting, as well as the perimenopause and menopause transition.   I also partner with individual adults struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief and loss, and those healing from trauma in their lives.

In addition, I am a mother, a spouse, a daughter, friend and dog-lover.  I enjoy working and playing in my garden, spending time with friends, and hiking and biking my way around Virginia.
