About Traci
Dr. Traci Fraley is a licensed psychologist practicing in Ohio. She holds credentials as SC Psychologist 957 and OH Psychologist P.7369 and brings 22 years of clinical experience to her work. She speaks English and draws on long-term clinical practice to help people navigate stressful life moments.
Her focus includes stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, career strain, and coping with life changes. She also lists coping with natural or human-caused disaster, first responder issues, midlife crisis, veteran and armed forces issues, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, and somatization among areas she addresses. People come to her for both short-term support and help working through difficult memories.
Dr. Fraley emphasizes a collaborative approach that starts with listening. She treats each person as the expert on their own story and builds on their strengths. When trauma or anxiety are central, she uses approaches that can include guided eye movement work and body-based techniques alongside cognitive tools.
Her sessions aim to be practical and direct. She helps people develop skills to manage symptoms, improve sleep, and make clearer career or life decisions. She offers morning appointments and uses some video sessions when working on trauma or anxiety.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and the therapist does not accept international clients.
How certain approaches translate to online care
Dr. Fraley works with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing as part of her trauma-focused practice. CBT is a skills-oriented approach that helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try practical changes in thinking and behavior to reduce anxiety and improve mood. EMDR involves guided bilateral stimulation paired with memory processing to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and the distress they cause.Choosing the right method is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about symptoms, goals, and what feels comfortable. Together they decide whether CBT tools, EMDR-style work, somatic techniques, or a mix will fit best for the client's needs.
Some parts of trauma or anxiety work use video sessions, as noted for this practice. Confirm current session options before booking to know what formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a morning routine, reduce travel time, and allow for focused check-ins between other responsibilities. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and pacing so work remains practical and manageable for everyday life.
