About me
Counsellor available/taking new client's for immediate support within Barrow-In-Furness/Ulverston areas..
My name is Tracy Emanuel-Pearson,
I am a Person-Centred Therapist, BACP Reg and regulated with over 25 years experience from working within the NHS, mental health and social care sector.
My Counselling Practice is a professional and friendly service that offers a safe, confidential setting on a 1-1 basis for client's who want to find support to implement change into their lives for personal growth and well-being, improve decision-making and develop coping strategies within an environment where they can talk openly, honestly, and feel heard without judgment.
Feeling Heard and understood..
'Feedback implies that client's value interventions and therapies that are worth the time and effort invested, emphasizing long-term growth and personal development.'
One of the most fundamental needs client's have is to feel genuinely listened to and understood by their therapist. This involves building trust and rapport, where clients feel their experiences are validated and their emotions recognized, creating a safe space for them to feel vulnerable and express their inner thoughts and self-expression.
The relationship between counsellor and client..
A strong working relationship between therapist and client is crucial, including any agreements, goals for your issues that were discussed. This offers a mutual trust, and a sense that the therapist genuinely cares about the client’s needs.
'A genuine Therapeutic Alliance is often the most significant predictor of therapy success.'
Meaningful change and empowerment..
Sometimes, life has a way of throwing emotionally tangled complexities at us, without warning.
You may Suddenly find that things have become out of control, life can feel unmanageable or just difficult, your resillience and self-worth may shrink, leaving you feeling lost, depressed, isolated or stuck in old patterns of coping with behaviour that you want to change for the better.
When difficulties or changes present, we may struggle with things that we have never had issues with before. Our relationships and attachments may change, work can seem daunting and we may want to detach from the pain and suffering that is presenting itself.
There are lots of reasons client's want to engage with therapy for, there is a more indepth list of these below.
However,
- Anxiety, low mood and grief are common experiences and can manifest in anyone at anytime, making life more difficult and sometimes overwhelming to manage, alongside day-to-day pressures and commitments, which after a time can make us feel less confident and worried about the future and how we will cope.
Working alongside myself
Working with someone professionally trained in this area of expertise, outside of our circle can also offer a sense of structure and guidance for a greater independence and a chance to face otherwise difficult, complex issues that we might find hard to share with others that are close to us.
I will help support you with this process, facilitating the training and experience I have developed within my role as a therapist to guide you.
How do I get started?
You have already taken the first step!
When you contact me for more information on how to begin counselling, we will organise a session that suits and meet initially for a consultation at my practice or you can organise a brief call from this directory. This is a way for us to see if we would be happy to work together and to manage a way forward collaberatively.
- We can also discuss how many/ how often attending sessions will benefit your personal journey within therapy for a successful outcome to your enquiry.
- Therapy can be short or long-term, depending on the individual requirements and work involved with each person, either way we will discuss this initially then review as sessions evolve.
Learning resources..
I also offer psychoeducation during sessions' which can be helpful for client's who want to learn more about their issues in depth and gain more insight.
Training, qualifications & experience
My Underpinning training is 'Person Centred' which essentially means we work together, collaberatively and safely. I will facilitate and enable you to chose a way that works for you as an individual.
I abide by the BACP code of ethics 2018 which is monitored, trusted and widely recognised in the counselling and psychotherapy world. It also means I like to work to the highest standard of practice with my clients.

Member organisations

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).
