Clinical Excellence. Specialized Insight. Accessible.

Dr. Tracy Cohn provides evidence-based psychological services and professional consultation for individuals navigating the complexities of modern life, leadership, and academia.

​

The Partnership 

 

A well-lived life is rarely accidental; it requires intentional design. Since 2001, I have partnered with motivated, high-functioning individuals and couples to navigate the nuances of high-pressure environments, relationship complexities, and personal growth.

​

My practice is built for the self-reflective client—the professional, the academic, and the leader—who is seeking to move beyond "managing" and toward a state of mastery.

​

Specialized Experience

​

My approach combines a deep psychodynamic understanding of your "why" with the practical tools needed for meaningful change. I provide a high-level therapeutic space specializing in:

​​

  • Performance & Burnout: Navigating the psychological weight of high-stakes careers and leadership.

  • Identity & Dynamics: Radical inclusivity in LGBTQ+, poly-affirming, and kink-aware care.

  • Academic & Career Transitions: Specialized support for faculty and researchers.

  • Relational Health: Strategic counseling for couples, from pre-partnering to resolving long-standing conflict.

​

Modern Care for 39 States Through PSYPACT Authorization, I provide secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth to clients across 39 states. This model is designed for professionals who value discretion, efficiency, and the ability to maintain consistent care regardless of their travel or relocation schedule.

More About Me

Credentials

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist specializing in human sexuality and high-pressure life transitions. Since receiving my Ph.D. from the University of Kansas in 2007 and completing my clinical residency with the Veterans Administration, I have dedicated my practice to helping clients navigate complex interpersonal and professional dynamics.

Through my PSYPACT authorization, I provide seamless, HIPAA-compliant telehealth care to clients in nearly 40 states, ensuring elite-level support is accessible wherever your career takes you.

Professorship & Research

My commitment to evidence-based care is rooted in years of diverse research. From investigating workplace success strategies for the Department of Labor to my current focus on human sexuality and relationship conflict, my work explores how we thrive in the face of challenge. I bring this research-backed perspective into every session, helping you navigate the behavioral patterns, organizational dynamics, and interpersonal systems that shape your daily life.

Clinical Practice

In my private practice, I partner with individuals and couples navigating the complexities of modern life—from managing high-pressure career burnout and trauma to exploring sexual identity and relationship dynamics.

​

The Foundation: Insight Meets Action My approach is integrative, rooted in a strong psychodynamic foundation. We don't just treat symptoms; we identify how early experiences and long-standing patterns shape your current behaviors. By understanding the "why" behind these patterns, we can effectively shift the dynamics that no longer serve your professional or personal well-being.

​

The Toolkit: Strategies for Growth I tailor every session to your unique objectives, drawing from a versatile range of evidence-based techniques:

​

  • Strategic Dialogue & Interpretation: We explore the unconscious dynamics and "blind spots" influencing your present struggles and decision-making.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Practical tools to identify unhelpful thought patterns and build high-functioning coping strategies.

  • Self-Monitoring & Visualization: Enhancing awareness of personal triggers and using mental imagery to clarify and achieve your goals.

  • Creative & Reflective Insight: Utilizing journaling, guided reading, and targeted reflection as pathways for deeper self-discovery and growth.

​

Together, we create a high-trust, confidential environment where meaningful change is not just the goal—it’s the outcome.

Business Consultation

With over 20 years of experience, I partner with organizations—ranging from agile startups to Fortune 500 companies—to solve the "human element" of business. As a psychologist, I look beyond traditional operations to the behavioral dynamics that drive or stall an organization’s success.

​

Strategic Areas of Focus:

​

  • High-Performance Culture: Enhancing productivity by addressing the psychological drivers of employee engagement and satisfaction.

​

  • Behavioral Talent Acquisition: Leveraging psychological insight to refine recruitment and identify candidates who align with your long-term strategic goals.

​

  • Leadership Resilience: Coaching executives and management teams to navigate high-stakes decision-making and mitigate burnout.

​

I am committed to providing data-informed, psychological insights that do more than just improve your bottom line—they build an organization capable of sustained excellence.
