About Tracey

Tracey Simeonova is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people untangle difficult thoughts, feelings and behaviours. She works online and draws on a mix of methods to support adults and teens who feel stuck, overwhelmed or worn down by repeating patterns.

Tracey holds BACP accreditation, and brings 15 years of experience in charities, the NHS, international schools and independent practice. Her work focuses on relationship difficulties, whether that means trouble with self-worth, body image or repeated patterns with others.

Background and approach

She also helps people facing grief, life transitions, anxiety, stress and addiction-related concerns. Tracey aims to form a steady, compassionate working relationship where people feel accepted as they are. In sessions she combines client-centred listening with practical interventions from cognitive behavioural ideas and acceptance and commitment techniques.

Attachment-based thinking also informs her work when relationship history affects present struggles. She uses these approaches to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. Tracey has taught trainee counsellors on an integrative counselling degree and has provided therapy in a range of settings both in the UK and abroad.

That background feeds into a calm, practical style that balances reflection with concrete steps. People who choose her often want a compassionate space to make sense of painful emotions and to practise small changes. She works with the pace of each person and supports them in finding clearer direction and more manageable ways of living.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

Tracey draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, and then choosing actions that reflect personal values; it can help with anxiety, avoidance and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and supports people to recognise and change repeating relational responses.

Finding the right approach happens together. Tracey will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and test methods to see what fits. That collaborative process includes checking in about what feels helpful and adjusting the way sessions are run as therapy progresses.

Online formats offer practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls let people use visual cues and body language, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or a screen-free check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter reflections, written processing or flexible contact between scheduled meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, study or family routines and to maintain continuity across different locations.
