About me
Providing therapy from her own studio based in Huddersfield Tracey provides therapy for all types of issues. Also working online with clients across the globe she has helped hundreds of people in her time as a counsellor.
She will enable you to explore your issues in a safe therapeutic environment using her vast experience and different theoretical approaches to help you find a way forward from your unique situation.
Often clients don’t know where to start when they enter therapy, either their issues are complex, they feel overwhelmed or sometimes even feeling stuck not fully understanding what bought them to counselling. Tracey will soon help you to feel relaxed as together you begin the first steps towards therapy.
Striving to provide accessible affordable counselling is the way forward and Tracey believes that therapy should be available to everyone.
Having over 12 years experience as a counsellor working with a whole range of issues. Tracey has also has a wealth of life experience much of which was in a military environment working with serving personnel, veterans and families. She is a warm friendly individual who smiles easily and will ensure you feel valued and relaxed throughout your session.
Her approach is very welcoming and she will work in a way that is right for you using her experience of different counselling approaches to help you explore whatever has bought you to seek therapy.
It’s not easy to take the first steps on your therapy journey but honestly after the first few minutes of the session you will be amazed how quickly your first session goes.
It is important to ensure you chose a counsellor that is right for you and as the session comes to a close Tracey will encourage you to leave the session and think about booking your next session. She will not pressure you to book another session there and then.
As well as being a counsellor she also has a wealth of life experience to draw upon much of which was spent within in a military environment which saw her working with soldiers, veterans and their families, from this her decision to become a counsellor began. She gained experience within a hospice environment, a rape crisis centre and has also provided loss & bereavement training to unit welfare officers within the military,
You may feel slightly apprehensive about starting your first session but honestly it will be worth it.
As the sessions progress you will begin to explore and gain a further insight into what is actually going on for you. Sometimes this may lead to making small changes in order for change to happen or find coping strategies for things like anxiety and other mental health conditions. For some people their journey may be about building confidence or they lack self esteem and together this is something we can explore and build upon. For other people they are unsure where to start and don’t really understand what’s going on for them other than something in their life is leaving them feeling ‘stuck’.
Although Tracey works with all types of issues she also specialise in the areas of rape & sexual abuse, loss & bereavement, life limiting terminal illness and military life issues.
Throughout your therapy you will find that you will begin to make sense of your situation and gain clarity on things you may wish to change, you may find answers you have been looking for and overcome challenges you never thought possible. You may have a better understanding of yourself and what is and is not acceptable to you. You will gain new insights too which will enable you to feel happier about your life and wellbeing.

Member organisations
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.
