Tracey Simeonova, BACP

Tracey Simeonova offers a person-centred approach that aims to help people feel understood and accepted. She uses practical therapeutic tools to tackle painful patterns in thinking, feeling and behaviour. Tracey writes plainly and works online with adults who are trying to make sense of difficult emotions and life changes.

She has 15 years of experience in a range of settings including charities, the NHS, international schools in Asia and the Middle East, and private practice. Tracey has also taught trainee counsellors on an integrative counselling degree programme. Her BACP registration is noted as part of her professional background.

In sessions she draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside a core person-centred stance. That means she listens first, then uses techniques that suit the issue you bring. The focus is on small, practical steps alongside exploring what matters to you.

Tracey helps people dealing with relationship difficulties, low self-worth, shame and body image concerns. She also supports those facing grief, addiction and major life transitions. Her work covers anxiety, stress, depression, anger and parenting-related strain.

People seeking help can expect a calm, compassionate space to talk through hard things. Sessions tend to be collaborative and paced to suit each person. Tracey works with English-speaking clients across the United Kingdom and internationally.

Therapeutic approaches for online work

Tracey commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside a person-centred way of working. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it supports living in line with personal values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people develop different ways of relating to themselves and others.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Tracey works collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person's needs, goals and preferences. She listens to what matters to you and adapts the mix of approaches as therapy progresses so it stays relevant and practical.

Online therapy with Tracey is available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat works well for shorter check-ins and messaging can fit into a busy day. These options make it simpler to schedule sessions around work, family or travel and offer flexibility in how people choose to engage.
