About Tracey

Tracey Harrison, BACP, helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, family issues, grief, parenting challenges and low self-esteem. She works with carers and those supporting children and young people, offering direct, practical support aimed at making day-to-day life easier. Her manner is warm and down-to-earth, with an emphasis on clear steps and honest conversation.

Tracey offers a mix of talking work and creative methods to suit different needs. Her practice draws on approaches such as clinical hypnotherapy, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Drawing and Talking Therapy and Sand Tray Therapy. These methods can be used to help people express feelings, manage anxiety and build confidence.

She has a background in education and Special Educational Needs and Disability, which informs her work with carers and young people. This experience helps her adapt sessions to individual situations and the practical demands of family life. Tracey aims to make sessions feel relevant and manageable rather than academic.

Sessions focus on what a person wants to change. Conversations are tailored to the individual's needs, with simple techniques to try between meetings. She emphasizes small, achievable steps and helps people track progress over time.

Tracey is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She practises in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English.

How Tracey’s approaches translate to online therapy

Tracey uses a small set of evidence-based techniques that can adapt to different needs. Clinical hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and focused imagery to help manage anxiety, stress and unhelpful thought patterns. Neuro Linguistic Programming, or NLP, uses practical language and behavioural strategies to shift unhelpful habits and build confidence. Emotional Freedom Technique, EFT, combines gentle tapping with attention to emotions and can be used to reduce intensity around distressing memories or feelings.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try out methods, and adjust plans together. This collaborative way helps find what feels most useful for the person's day-to-day life.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session formats before booking. Many people find online work fits better around busy schedules, allows shorter check-ins between commitments and avoids travel time. It can make it easier to keep momentum, try techniques at home, and follow through with tasks agreed in sessions.
