CYW, CYC (cert), ACTRP
Tracy attended Lambton College, graduating with an Advanced Diploma from the Child and Youth Care program and is a member of the Ontario Association of Child and Youth Care. Since joining Life’s Seasons, Tracy has become accredited by Starr Commonwealth as an Advanced Certified Trauma and Resilience Practitioner.
Tracy has been involved in working with young people for over 25 years. Throughout her career, Tracy’s passion has been building relationships with people of all ages. Tracy has volunteered her time working in school and church settings with children’s self-esteem and anti-bullying programs, later to serve in Youth Group leadership at her Church in Bright’s Grove, now facilitating a Young Adults Group.
Tracy’s philosophy of care is to come alongside each person and build relationship with them. To help each individual feel as safe and comfortable as possible while they share their story; and to help people know that they are not alone, that they are listened to, valued and brave.
After her marriage to husband Ian, Tracy lived in Europe for what turned out to be a year-long honeymoon. She is a dedicated wife and loving mother. Tracy is also obsessed with Christmas and is not afraid to show it.
