About Me
My name is Tracey and I am a qualified counsellor, EMDR practitioner and coach. I offer a safe, calm, and confidential space for you to talk, and to help identify your goals from therapy. I work with adults of all ages who may be experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship, or career issues. I aim to help you understand your situation, find new solutions, and give you tools to face future challenges. I practice Gestalt therapy, meaning I believe everyone has the potential to solve their own problems, but that sometimes they might need some help. In addition, I use EMDR where people have experienced traumatic events or have phobias.
Alongside my private practice, I have worked in a GP practice and the voluntary sector. This has given me experience with a wide range of people and issues.
Prior to training as a counsellor and coach, I spent over 20 years working in Finance for the NHS and wider public sector. I have had a variety of life experiences and understand that life often presents us with challenges. I am located within easy reach of Winchester, Southampton, and Eastleigh.
I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). As such, I adhere to the BACP Ethical Framework and Professional Conduct codes of practice. Further details can be found on www.bacp.co.uk. I am also a member of the Hampshire Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (HACP).
I receive regular clinical supervision to support and inform my practice, and attend workshops and training as part of my continued professional development. I have full Indemnity Insurance and an Enhanced DBS (formerly Criminal Records Bureau) Certificate.

- Dip(He) Humanistic Gestalt Counselling
- EMDR Certificate – EMDR Europe Association
