About Tracey

Tracey Harrison is a BACP counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, family tensions, grief, parenting strain and low self-esteem. She works with clients who are dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care questions, attachment concerns, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and codependency. Her approach aims to make small, practical changes that feel manageable in everyday life.

Tracey offers one-to-one talking therapy alongside clinical hypnotherapy and methods such as Neuro Linguistic Programming and Emotional Freedom Technique. She also uses creative tools like Drawing and Talking and Sand Tray Therapy when those methods suit the person’s needs. The focus is on simple, understandable steps rather than technical jargon.

Her background includes extensive experience in education and Special Educational Needs and Disability, which informs how she tailors sessions to individual circumstances. She pays attention to what helps each person feel heard and able to act on change. Sessions are shaped around the issues the client brings and the goals they set together.

Tracey aims to build confidence, reduce overwhelm, and help people find clearer ways of coping. She writes plans with realistic actions to try between meetings. If you want an initial sense of how she works, the Start Therapy button leads to a short questionnaire to match you and schedule sessions.

Tracey has seven years of professional experience and practises in the United Kingdom. She works in English and does not take international clients. Costs vary by location and therapist availability and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Practical approaches for online and remote support

Tracey works with approachable, evidence-based techniques that focus on clear steps and real-life change. Clinical hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and focused attention to help people change habits, ease anxiety and manage stress symptoms. Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) uses simple language and mental exercises to shift unhelpful thought patterns and boost confidence. Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) combines gentle tapping with talking work to reduce emotional intensity during distressing memories or strong feelings.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what feels most useful, try different techniques in early sessions and adjust the plan based on your goals and preferences. This means the work evolves to suit the way you respond and the changes you want to make.

The original biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy life by cutting travel time, making it easier to schedule short check-ins around work, and allowing people to join from wherever they feel most able to focus. For some people, not needing to travel makes it simpler to keep appointments and commit to steady progress.
