Tracey HarrisonBACP

Tracey Harrison is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting pressures, grief and self-esteem concerns. She offers care for issues linked to family life and supports people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care questions, and fatherhood issues. Tracey uses plain talking and practical strategies to help people feel steadier day to day.

Tracey draws on seven years' experience working with children, young people, carers and families and a background in education and special educational needs and disability. She combines talking work with creative methods such as Drawing and Talking Therapy and Sand Tray Therapy to help people express difficult feelings when words are hard to find.

Her practice also includes clinical hypnotherapy, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) alongside one-to-one talking therapy. Sessions are shaped to the person in front of her, with plans adjusted as needs change. The emphasis is on practical steps and small changes that add up over time.

Tracey aims to create a calm, respectful space where carers and parents can talk through worries about family relationships, coping with loss, chronic illness, or communication problems. She supports people to build confidence and to manage caregiver stress and blended family challenges.

People who choose Tracey are offered a tailored approach that mixes creative tools and evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She explains options clearly and works with each person to find methods that feel manageable and relevant to everyday life.

Therapy approaches and how they fit online

Tracey uses a mix of talking therapy and creative techniques. One approach she offers is clinical hypnotherapy, which involves guided relaxation and focused attention to address anxiety, stress and motivation. Another is Neuro Linguistic Programming, which works with language and thought patterns to change unhelpful responses and build confidence.

She also draws on creative therapies such as Drawing and Talking and Sand Tray Therapy to help people express emotions that are hard to put into words, which can be useful when processing grief or family conflict. These methods let feelings emerge through images and play rather than only through conversation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tracey will help clients decide together which methods suit their goals, needs and preferences. She adapts plans as progress is made so the work stays relevant and manageable.

If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also be useful when someone prefers to use creative exercises or guided techniques from their own setting, though you should confirm which formats and tools are offered before you start.
