About me
Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck or struggling with grief, trauma or relationship difficulties?
Taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting, but you don’t have to face things alone.
Hello, I’m Tracey, an experienced MBACP counsellor based in Huddersfield. With over 12 years’ experience, I’ve supported thousands of people through life’s challenges, helping them gain clarity, confidence and a way forward.” including anxiety, trauma, bereavement, relationship difficulties, couples issues and low self-esteem.”
I offer face-to-face counselling from my private therapy room in Lindley, Huddersfield, as well as online sessions across the UK and worldwide. My approach is warm, down-to-earth and supportive, providing a safe space where you can talk openly, feel heard and work towards positive change at your own pace.
Whether you’re facing a specific difficulty or simply feeling lost, overwhelmed or unsure where to turn, therapy can help you make sense of what you’re experiencing and find a way forward.
I draw on a range of counselling approaches, tailoring each session to what works best for you. Alongside my professional training, I bring extensive life experience, much of it in a military environment, supporting service personnel, veterans, and their families. This unique insight inspired me to train as a counsellor and continues to shape my work; with compassion, clarity, and care.
People come to therapy for many different reasons. Some arrive with a clear issue they want help with, while others simply know they don’t feel like themselves and want support to understand why.
Alongside private practice, I have worked in hospice care and at a rape crisis centre, and have delivered bereavement training to military welfare officers.

Member Organisations:
Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP)
I am listed on the BACP Register, which is accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). This means I meet recognised professional standards and am committed to ethical, safe, and effective practice.
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.
