“Traci is wonderful! She has been empathetic, compassionate and extremely patient. In my experience, she has created a very safe space whereby the concept of opening up and sharing my issues, has become much less daunting. Her sense of hope is inspiring and her warmth and sense of humor have really helped to develop a strong level of rapport. I feel that I can truly trust Traci and that she sees me as a whole person, rather than just the sum of my issues.”

“Traci has offered me a range of effective strategies to address my issues and has empowered me with the skills to take control of my own wellbeing.

Written by V. January 2016

“Having been in therapy since I was 16 years old (I am now 40) and having the opportunity to seek many many counselors, psychiatrists, and psychologists, I can honestly say that Traci is a godsend. I signed up with this website when my depression and anxiety started spiraling out of control again, and in a few short weeks, I started feeling better.”

“She has all the qualities that make a good therapist: knowledge, technique, empathy, and non-judgmental(ness) – is that even a word.”

Written by A.R. April 2019

“I attended Fight 101 with my teenage daughter. It was a great bonding experience for us. Not only did it give us the opportunity to learn physical defensive maneuvers, it also opened up doors to conversation about the importance of taking care of ourselves, watching out for our friends, to my own experience of an attack, and that we can be much stronger than we think. In just a short time, Fight 101 gave us both the skills and confidence to defend ourselves to the best of our abilities. I highly recommend the Fight 101 experience.”

Written by L. November 2015

“Traci is honestly a wonderful therapist. By that, I mean that she is a balanced combination of thoughtful, compassionate, patient, task and change-oriented, insightful, and has the skill and gift of combining deeper wisdom (and the encouragement of clients cultivating their own) and solid cognitive behavioral understanding, amongst other psychological fields. She gets how the past relates to the present, and the good in exploring that, but keeps most of the work in the present. I also appreciate her humor and that she does not set herself totally apart as a therapist–she is clear that she is sharing the human journey. I think of her as more of a coach, and that dynamic has worked really well for me. “

Written By D. September 2015 After Working With Traci For 4 Months On Depression, Stress, Anxiety, Relationship Issues, Sex-Related Issues, Anger Management, and Career Difficulties

Thank you, Traci. I will miss how upbeat you are!”

Written by A. February 2017 After Counseling with Traci for Two Weeks

Her advice is very reassuring and she goes well out of her way to provide extra, helpful resources for consideration as you work together. Traci addresses me at a very personal level and helps me to not be so hard on myself as I travel on an up and down path to wellness. I hope to continue working with her for some time.”

Written By K. December 2017

“I have seen a few counselors over the years but I never been so impressed as I was with the therapeutic program that Traci laid out. The goals for our treatment, which were extremely well-structured, were discussed at our first meeting and, while her approach was systematic, it was also quite flexible. She moved at our pace and tailored her tested program to our needs. I feel that Traci very effectively helped my wife and I thoroughly examine our relationship and gave us valuable tools to strengthen our relationship.”

Written by W.A. on Apr 20, 2020 after counseling with Traci for 4 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, family conflicts, intimacy-related issues, sleeping disorders, self-esteem, career difficulties, and bipolar disorder.

I heard a BetterHelp advertisement on a podcast and decided to try it because in-person counseling was an additional point of anxiety for me. I think Traci understood this without my having to explain it and that was perfect because I needed help with depression and anxiety.

I don’t think I’m a fun client as I don’t take well to coaching; letting others set my direction is just not in me. In my experience, Traci has the patience to let her client move in their own way and on their own time. I never felt any pressure that I didn’t put on myself, which was just one of many ways Traci helped me discover how and where I was getting in my own way. She was also very good at questioning my situation to draw me into clarifying which parts were my doing, which parts I could do something about, and which parts were someone else’s problem.

If you think as I did, that it’s unlikely you will find a counselor who can help, I hope you find Traci or someone very like her.

Written by M.I. on Jul 04, 2020 after counseling with Traci for 5 months on issues concerning eating disorders.

I’m so grateful to Traci for the invaluable help and support she’s offered me over these last few months. We’ve been exploring some really important aspects of my life, and Traci has been consistently brilliant in the way she’s listened and understood all that I’ve shared with her. She’s brought warmth, wisdom, and light to many things that I hadn’t fully grasped or just couldn’t see. It’s been one of my richest ever periods of growing and learning. Thank you, Traci!

Written By K. December 2017

“Traci is kind, easy to talk to, she isn’t like talking to a counselor it’s like talking to your best friend but you get the best advice and so much help :).

I have accomplished numerous things through her and I’m so thankful every day for her and her amazing help!”

“I worked with Traci for over 3-4 months. The sessions were absolutely wonderful. Initially, I was skeptical about online sessions. But Traci was always positive and happy and it helped. I started seeing her with a specific problem but we ended up working through a couple others too. Her tools and resources and the way she explained things was very very helpful. When I compare the person I was before seeing her and after seeing her, I can see how much I have improved and grown. And I owe it all to Traci. She is the best. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for help.”

Written By E. December 2017

“I’ve talked to therapists before and I’ve never had any results or any kind of forward progress. I typically get to a 3-month mark and think they’ve given me enough tools to survive (probably why I’m also getting bad at responding promptly, even though I want and need to talk I’m doing a poor job of prioritizing it and I apologize), and ghost them. This time is different. I feel myself changing and making progress. It’s giving me hope and a sense of control over my life.”

“Betterhelp and Traci have been a relieving and awesome discovery.
I respond best to being asked questions in order to kick start my brain into processing, and Traci is not only helpful in listening and affirming that I’ve been heard, but asks questions and challenges my thought process and outlooks, which is needed in order to learn, grow, and improve. Traci provides articles and more information, which is an incredibly helpful reference for me.
I have been and will continue to tell others about Betterhelp and its benefits.”

Traci has been my therapist twice since I moved to Marquette, both times dealing with family issues. She was always emotionally present and confident in my ability to deal with trauma and family estrangement. When things got very rough, she saw me frequently until the crisis was resolved. Traci respected my choices and my pace of progress and was always compassionate. She never hesitated to push when necessary.  All in all, a very positive experience with enduring change in my relationship with family members. Traci is knowledgeable, warm, engaged—everything a good therapist should be.

I have grown so much through mindfulness in ways I never would have seen myself doing without the help of the amazing Traci Baxendale Ball 🙂

Written by J.D. in July 2020 after counseling with Traci.

Thanks for your expert guidance, friendship, mentorship, and overall help. The biggest paradigm shifts from your counseling were being a kind observer to myself, coming into awareness with the self-talk, mindfulness, identifying the stressors in my life, and how it transcends into my sex life. Getting out of my head and breathing was super helpful especially when I really focused. Meditation also played a huge role as well. Addressing the limited beliefs part was also tough, but so necessary.

Written by L. in 2020 after counseling with Traci for over 2 years.

Thank you so much for your help these last 2 1/2 years! You have helped me through the hardest times in my life and I truly couldn’t have gotten through it without your compassion and wisdom.

“Traci is very knowledgeable and capable, but more importantly to me, she is caring and supportive. They say your best friend is the best therapist you can have, and she immediately makes you feel that you have known her forever and she’s that best friend.”

“Traci Baxendale Ball has been a lifesaver for me. I had many things going on in my life that I was not able to sort through alone and she was there for every step of the way. She is extremely patient, caring and helps you work through your emotions step by step. She is amazing and I couldn’t thank her enough for what she has helped me get through!”

“Traci is the best! She and I really click where I was looking for someone to help me holistically. She’s very understanding of my circumstances and gives her opinion from an objective point of view. Her assignments and everything she does to help me is so helpful. I completely recommend her to anyone going through major anxiety/panic issues. We’re going at a good pace and we’re working through my issues. Love Traci!! :)”
