Tracey Harrison, BACP

Tracey Harrison is a United Kingdom based therapist who specialises in supporting children, young people, carers and families, drawing on seven years of practical experience. She blends professional training with a background in education and Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) to understand the particular challenges faced by children and those who care for them.

Tracey offers a range of therapeutic options to meet individual needs, including one-to-one talking therapy, clinical hypnotherapy, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). She also uses creative, child-centred methods such as Drawing and Talking Therapy and Sand Tray Therapy to help younger clients express themselves in ways that feel natural and effective.

Her practice addresses stress, anxiety, family conflict, grief and loss, parenting concerns, motivation and self-esteem, as well as more specialised areas like attachment, adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, chronic illness and blended family issues. Tracey approaches each person with respect, sensitivity and compassion, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to the unique circumstances of each family or individual.

She is credentialed with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and focuses on creating a supportive environment where people can build confidence, overcome obstacles and work toward lasting change.

Therapeutic approaches and online care for families and children

Tracey offers one-to-one talking therapy that focuses on discussing thoughts and feelings to identify patterns and develop coping strategies - an approach that can be helpful for issues like anxiety, stress and parenting challenges. She also provides clinical hypnotherapy, a guided relaxation method that supports access to thoughts and memories and can be used to address habits, motivation and emotional regulation. For younger clients, Drawing and Talking Therapy gives children creative ways to express themselves through drawing and gentle conversation, helping to explore feelings that are hard to describe in words.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Tracey works collaboratively with each person and family to understand needs, goals and preferences, and together they decide which techniques are likely to be the best fit.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter check-ins or ongoing support are available through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules, reduce travel time and provide access to registered professionals from home or other convenient locations.
