About Tracey

Tracey Harrison is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who offers support for stress, anxiety, family concerns, grief, parenting questions and self-esteem. She aims to help people find steadier day-to-day routines and clearer thinking about difficult moments. Tracey uses a variety of approaches and adapts conversations to each person’s needs.

Tracey works with parents, carers, children and young people, drawing on her background in education and Special Educational Needs and Disability. She uses talking therapy, clinical hypnotherapy, Neuro Linguistic Programming and Emotional Freedom Technique when these fit the person’s goals. Creative methods such as Drawing and Talking Therapy and Sand Tray Therapy are offered as additional ways to communicate, especially for younger people.

Her practice focuses on practical steps and habits that can make daily life easier. Sessions aim to build confidence, improve coping with loss or change, and help people manage family conflict or ongoing stress. Tracey tailors the pace, language and tools to the person in front of her rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Tracey has seven years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration is noted as BACP. She combines therapeutic conversation with creative techniques to help people express themselves and build new routines.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability. Tracey prefers an approach that is respectful, practical and focused on small, steady change.

Approaches that support thinking, habits and day-to-day life

Tracey offers a mix of evidence-based techniques alongside creative options. Clinical hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help people shift unhelpful thoughts and break unhelpful habits; it can be useful for anxiety, low motivation and some habit change goals. Neuro Linguistic Programming, or NLP, involves noticing thought patterns and language to reframe how a person responds to stress and to build more helpful routines. Creative methods such as Drawing and Talking Therapy and Sand Tray Therapy give children and young people alternative ways to show feelings when words are hard to find.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try different methods to see what fits best. Sessions can combine talking, practical habit work and creative techniques until a useful mix is found.

The biography does not list specific online or in-person formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can help sessions fit into busy schedules, make short check-ins easier, or reduce travel time. It can also allow rolling between different methods across appointments so practical changes can be practised between sessions.
