Tracey Harrison

Tracey Harrison is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, family issues, grief, parenting concerns and self-esteem. She also focuses on areas such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment and ageing issues.

Tracey offers a mix of talking-based and creative approaches. She uses one-to-one talking therapy alongside clinical hypnotherapy, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) where appropriate. For younger clients she offers creative methods such as Drawing and Talking and Sand Tray therapy to help expression without relying only on words.

Her background includes extensive work in education and Special Educational Needs and Disability, which informs how she supports carers and parents. That experience shapes practical strategies for day-to-day challenges at home and school. Tracey aims to help people build confidence and cope better with emotional difficulties.

Sessions involve conversational work about what isn’t working, setting manageable goals, and practising techniques between meetings. Where relevant, hypnotherapy and brief NLP or EFT exercises are used to support those steps. She adapts how she works according to each person’s situation and preferences.

People often seek her out when they feel stuck after a life change, when parenting feels overwhelming, or when loss and low self-worth are getting in the way. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session to agree next steps.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can work

Tracey uses a mix of talking-based and creative techniques. Talking therapy involves regular conversations to identify what feels stuck, set small goals and try practical changes. Clinical hypnotherapy is offered as a brief intervention to help with habits, anxiety and motivation by using guided relaxation and focused suggestion.

She also uses creative therapies such as Drawing and Talking and Sand Tray methods for children and young people, which let emotions and memories be expressed through images and objects rather than only words. These methods can be useful when verbal description is difficult or feels limited.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to test different techniques and agree which ones fit best with the person’s goals and preferences. That choice can change as progress is made.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera when that helps them concentrate.
