Tracy L. Cunningham, MSW, LCSW

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

My approach with clients is genuine, empathetic, and energetic. I believe that healing comes from allowing clients to share their stories of personal struggles and talk openly without fear of being judged. I help my clients to improve their lives while at the same time increasing their knowledge of available resources and challenge the existing stereotypes related to mental illness.
