7 Years Experience

Sometimes it can be difficult to talk to family or friends about how you really feel, and you just need someone to talk to who is able to take their time to listen to you, without judgment.

You may have experienced difficult life events or upsetting or traumatic events, or have developed a long-term health condition or disability, or maybe you just feel low or anxious and you’re not sure why. Whatever your situation, some experiences can create difficult emotions such as guilt, sadness, confusion, anger and low self-esteem, which I can help you to manage during our therapy work together.

I use a person-centred approach as the basis of my counselling work which can help you to make sense of your life experiences and current circumstances. I will support you in developing your own solutions to difficulties and help you to re-build a sense of who you are and how you would like to live your life.

Our working relationship will form an integral part of the therapeutic process with the sessions moving at your pace, in a safe environment, free from judgment.

In addition to the person-centred approach I also use solution focused and positive psychology techniques. Solution focused therapy is useful if you wish to have short term therapy and you already have an idea about your preferred future but maybe need some help in getting there. Positive psychology encourages you to not only accept yourself by living authentically, but to also focus on your strengths which then encourages emotional resilience and personal growth.

"Was sceptical at first but within the first few minutes Tracey made me feel relaxed and brought a lot of humour which made it a better experience. Would definitely reccomend without a doubt. "

"Tracey was very welcoming and reassured my nerves "

"Fantastic support and feel we are making real progress "

"I looked for Tracy's support in a time where I was in the middle of a very stressful situation and a little lost in life. She has helped me to be kinder with myself and to know myself better. These changes have had a positive effect that extends to every aspect of my life. Some issues that have been dealt with in our sessions have been anxiety, depression, problems in relationships and self-esteem, all of which I feel much better equipped to handle. "

"Great first session. "

"Very helpful first session. "

"First session was excellent. Felt really good to open up."

"Tracey was really patient, I do tend to just ramble on but she listened to it all and kept it within my comfort zone. I did feel better by the end, a bit of weight off my shoulders! "

"very kind and easy going to talk to"
