Tracey Harrison , BACP

Tracey Harrison is a United Kingdom-based therapist who specialises in tailored support for children, young people, carers, and families. With seven years of experience and accreditation from the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - she focuses on practical, person-centred work that aims to foster long-term well-being and positive change.

Her practice brings together talking therapy and a range of clinical and creative techniques to match each client’s needs. Tracey offers 1:1 talking therapy alongside clinical hypnotherapy, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Drawing and Talking Therapy, and Sand Tray Therapy. These options make it possible to choose approaches that suit different ages and communication styles, especially when working with children and young people.

Tracey’s background in education and Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) informs her understanding of the pressures facing families and carers. She has experience addressing stress, anxiety, family conflict, grief, parenting challenges, motivation, and self-esteem, and she works sensitively with issues such as adoption and foster care, attachment, and caregiving stress. Tracey adapts conversations and treatment plans to each person’s goals and circumstances, offering compassionate, professional support. She is currently accepting clients in the United Kingdom and provides remote session options.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Tracey combines core talking therapy with targeted techniques to address a range of emotional and relational challenges. One option is 1:1 talking therapy - a structured conversational approach that helps people explore feelings, identify patterns, and develop coping strategies for stress, anxiety, family conflict, grief, and self-esteem concerns. Clinical hypnotherapy is another tool she offers - it uses guided relaxation and focused attention to support changes in thinking and behaviour and can be useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation-related goals. For children and young people, Drawing and Talking Therapy provides a creative route to expression - using drawing alongside gentle conversation to help younger clients communicate emotions they may find hard to put into words.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Tracey works collaboratively with clients and families to consider goals, preferences, and practical needs, adapting methods as the work progresses so the plan fits each person. Licensed professionals and therapists may use different techniques, and Tracey will help determine which fit best for the client’s situation.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to attend from home, balance caregiving or work commitments, and maintain continuity of care when meeting in person is difficult. These options aim to increase accessibility while allowing therapists to tailor timing and format to each client’s life.
