About me
Hello, I’m Tracey - welcome to my profile. I have been working as a counsellor since 2003 and believe that we all have the capacity for healing and growth, despite any obstacles that might get in the way. I will support you to explore your feelings and how you experience yourself in the world and in relation to others. The aim is to empower you to be able to make choices, take control over your life and find a way forward that is right for you.
Talking to friends and family may feel difficult so I can offer you a neutral space to help you try and make sense of your feelings and what is happening for you.
I have many years of experience working in the voluntary sector in mental health and support settings so I am familiar with workplace trauma and the impact it can have on people’s lives. I use the pronouns she/her and have an interest in working with people wishing to explore issues related to gender, sexuality and relationship diversity.
I work from a tranquil setting in the heart of Norwich and currently offer an initial session via Zoom/phone to see if we both feel comfortable working together.
Training, qualifications & experience
Having had counselling myself I wanted to understand more about how the process worked. I trained in the Person-Centred approach in 2002. The philosophy behind this approach to counselling is that each client has the ability to move in the direction of a more fulfilling and satisfying way of being and living their lives. It is based on trust in the inner resources of the client to find their own answers and directions.
I have experience working with various issues such as anxiety, depression, anger management, substance misuse, low self-esteem. I have a particular interest in working with people who wish to explore issues related to Gender, Sexuality and Relationship Diversity and those identifying as neurodiverse.
Over the past 20 years, I have worked in various settings within mental health services in London and East Anglia.

Further information
This may be the first time you have accessed counselling, so I’ll give you an idea of what will happen when you make contact with me.
You can either call or email me and I will aim to reply within 24 hours, Mon-Thu, to set up an initial session which would last up to an hour. During this session, it would be helpful if you could explain what brings you to counselling and I will give you an outline of how I work and what you can expect from me. If we are in agreement to work together, we can then find a suitable time to meet again.
