About Tracy
Tracy Sharman is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and depression. Her practice also covers a range of other concerns such as addictions, career difficulties, bipolar mood issues and coping with life changes.
Tracy uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns, try different ways of responding, and practise skills between meetings. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what can change in daily life.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, attachment-based ideas and client-centred listening. That means she combines looking at thoughts and behaviours with attention to how relationships shape feelings, and keeps the person’s own perspective central. Sessions often include simple exercises and steps to try between appointments.
Tracy has worked in the UK for three years and brings that experience to routine life stresses as well as more complex issues like trauma and dissociation. She is used to helping people manage mood swings, attention differences, and relationship tensions that affect day-to-day functioning.
People who choose Tracy can expect clear, practical conversations and an emphasis on small, achievable changes. Before committing, she asks about immediate concerns and what a realistic first step would look like. This lets clients agree on manageable goals together.
How Tracy uses practical approaches in online sessions
Tracy draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioural changes. CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress.She also works with attachment-based ideas that look at how past and current relationships affect emotions and patterns of relating. This can help when difficulties with trust, abandonment or communication keep repeating.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tracy will discuss what feels most useful and decide together on a plan that fits the person’s goals and preferences. That collaborative planning includes picking practical exercises and deciding what to practise between sessions.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week by reducing travel and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow people to choose interactions that suit them, such as fewer visual demands or a quieter setup, so therapy fits more smoothly into everyday life.
