Tracey Yokas creates stuff. When she isn't writing about mental health and wellness, she can be found playing with paint, glitter, and glue. A former entertainment industry professional, Tracey has an affinity for color coded art supplies and is dedicated to supporting women in the journey towards authenticity and fulfills her mission by creating safe spaces where art, words, and vulnerability meet in dynamic community.

Tracey has a master's degree in counseling psychology and is the author of the book, Bloodlines: A Memoir of Harm and Healing in which she shares her family's journey with mental illness and healing so that others will know they are not alone and hope is real.
