Therapist

I believe that healing happens within the context of a safe, supportive relationship. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to explore your experiences without fear of judgment. I understand that beginning therapy can feel vulnerable, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside clients as they pursue healing and personal growth.

I am a licensed therapist in both Florida and California with over seven years of experience working with adults. I am EMDR trained and use an attachment-based, trauma-informed approach that integrates evidence-based practices, including EMDR, parts work, somatic techniques, and psychoeducation. My work focuses on helping individuals heal from trauma, attachment wounds, anxiety, and grief and loss while developing healthier relationships, greater emotional resilience, and lasting change.

As a Christian counselor, I also enjoy integrating faith into the therapeutic process for clients who desire it, while honoring each person's unique values and beliefs. I primarily work with adults who are navigating the effects of trauma, difficult life experiences, anxiety, grief, and relational challenges. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, I am committed to providing compassionate, collaborative care that supports your journey toward healing and hope.

Dr. Tracy Covington

Dr. Tracy Covington

Psychologist

Virtual • California


I’m a clinical psychologist (doctor) in Ventura county, California, with over 25 years of experience and a practice designed to feel calm, human, and welcoming. Many of the patients I work with come to therapy feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, depressed, or stuck. They may be navigating trauma, grief, relationship pain, major life transitions, or the quiet weight of having tried to manage too much for too long. My work is for people who are ready for something deeper than just getting through the day. My approach is warm, grounded, and deeply human, focused on real life, not just symptoms.

For over 20 years, I've specialized in Palliative & Hospice care, supporting adults as they navigate cancer, chronic illness, grief, challenging family dynamics & end-of-life concerns. I also work with caregivers and healthcare professionals experiencing burnout and emotional fatigue. When you or someone you love is facing cancer or another serious condition, everything can feel uncertain. Together we can create space for the parts of you that feel overwhelmed or scared, and the ones trying to stay strong. You don’t have to carry this alone.

I understand the challenges of navigating the healthcare system and the importance of advocating for yourself or a loved one impacted by illness. As an educator and bedside clinician, I’ve supported countless patients and families in accessing California’s End of Life Option Act. Whether you are a patient or caregiver, I would be privileged to support you on this journey and believe that nobody should have to face such difficulties on their own. I also work with healthcare professionals—doctors, nurses, and social workers—who give so much of themselves and sometimes need space to process and recharge.

Throughout my career, I've worked collaboratively on interdisciplinary teams, focusing specifically on the psychosocial needs of individuals impacted by medical challenges and the family members caring for them.
