About me
My private practice is based in Weybridge
I work with adults, couples and children and have successful breakthroughs in the counselling.
In my extensive work with children, I use creative techniques such as sand play, drawings and using symbols. Presenting issues I often see include anxiety over exams, self harming, phobias, OCD, bereavement, erratic mood swings, anger issues, technology and other addictions, problems with friendships, bullying, destructive behaviour at school, an inability to be present (daydreaming), ADHD, autistic traits, relationship issues, panic disorders, depression and separation anxiety.
Tracey is one of the 22 therapists in the UK whom is a child EMDR specialist. She frequently handles difficult case referrals from CAMHS, goverment agencies and the NHS. Tracey works with UK agencies as a first-line responder for Trauma counselling to national crises such as terrorist attacks.
As a seasoned psychotherapist working with adults, I have encountered many different types of addictions such as alcohol, work, sex and often work directly with family members affected by these addictions too - often in couples sessions where one partner has the addiction and the other is trying to live alongside them.
I work with many other presenting issues such as generalised anxiety disorder, bereavement, loneliness, trauma, depression, relationship issues and abuse.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can reduce trauma significantly with optimum results. I am fully trained to work with adults and children using EMDR techniques with incredible results.
Clients with addictions or compulsive thought processes are often unaware of their feelings and how to get through those feelings without turning to a substance, having obsessive thinking or just feeling sad. I explore these feelings with clients as they emerge, encouraging other ways of dealing with them.

Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
