Story
Dean Nugent and Myself have joined forces to help combat mental illness and PTSD issues within the veteran community for all three services.
Having issues ourselves we feel that it is fitting that we are in a better position to understand and help other veterans.
Tracy has worked at Combat Stress for 3 years from 2014-2017, where she delivered 1:1 therapy to over 160 veterans and psycho-educational groups to over 400 veterans, as well as assessing over 100 veterans to assist them in accessing help.
Tracy has also worked for the MOD, where she was the subject matter expert in CBT for complex mental health problems, and was the sole CBT therapist at the Department of Community Mental Health (DCMH) in Colchester.
She come's from a military family, as her father was an RSM in the Danish army, one brother was a Cpl in the French Foreign Legion, and the other served in the Danish Navy. Her husband is still serving.
Since she was 14, veterans' mental health is all she ever wanted to work with and what has driven her to help others for free and in her own time when not working herself.
She loves working with veterans and has all the time in the world for them and always works at someone's own pace, and never judges. We know that one of Tracy's most important attributes is that she can give someone the ability to trust and they can take steps forward in life and deal with their problems in their own time. Tracy has become a valuable member of the Battle Buddy UK team but all this is done in her own free time and out of her own pocket. she has become the frontline in helping veterans trying to help save life's and their family's.
Tracy coming onboard.
