About me
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida with 22 years post master's degree experience. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults and seniors providing individual, couples, family and group therapy in a variety of settings. I have the most experience working with the following issues: perinatal/infant loss, grief, adjustment issues, depression, suicide, anxiety, end of life/geriatric, physical disabilities, PTSD, bipolar disorder, sexual trauma, self esteem, relationship issues, co-dependency, and ADHD.
My counseling style is warm, open and interactive. I believe in practicing with non judgmental positive regard and empathy. My approach combines strengths-based, solution focused, cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive counseling theories.
You've made the first step towards taking better care of yourself. I look forward to walking along side of you and assist you in overcoming the barriers to obtain your goals.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Tracey Nicole Waite. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Nicole is my second therapist on BetterHelp and is a lot better than my first. She listens and provides structure to her therapy session/plan. She makes sure she understands what it is you need before trying to offer advice.
