Tracey is a counsellor registered with the NCPS. She has five years' experience helping people who are struggling with trauma and abuse, self-esteem, coping with life changes and related issues. She listens carefully to each person's story before suggesting ways forward.

In sessions she uses a blend of methods chosen to match each person's needs. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps with strong feelings and relationship patterns, while Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing can be used for processing difficult memories. She combines these approaches with practical, day-to-day strategies for managing mood and stress.

People see her for a wide range of concerns, including abandonment and attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, impulsivity and loneliness. She also supports those facing life-purpose questions and midlife transitions, and has experience with veteran and armed forces issues.

Sessions are conversational and collaborative. Tracey aims to create a steady, non-judgemental space where clients can try new ways of thinking and responding. She guides practical exercises between sessions and helps people track small changes that add up over time.

How EFT and EMDR can work in online therapy

Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps people notice and name strong feelings and the patterns that keep them stuck. It can be useful for understanding attachment, abandonment worries and repetitive emotional reactions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, known as EMDR, focuses on processing distressing memories so they feel less overwhelming; it is often used when trauma or painful past events are present.

Finding the right method is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your story and suggest which approach or combination might suit your goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as therapy unfolds to match what helps most.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls let you work face to face from wherever you are, phone sessions can fit into short breaks or when a camera is not needed, and chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to book sessions around work, caregiving or mobility needs while still working with registered or accredited professionals.
