About Tracy
Tracy Sharman is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She holds BACP accreditation, and she aims to make it easier for people to begin talking about difficult feelings. Tracy says the first step is often the hardest, and she encourages small, steady steps toward change.
Her work focuses on stress, anxiety and depression, and she also supports people coping with trauma and abuse.
Background and approach
She helps individuals who are dealing with addictions, managing bipolar disorder, navigating career pressures, or adapting to life changes. Attention-related difficulties such as ADHD are also within her scope. In sessions Tracy keeps the atmosphere open and non-judgemental.
She listens closely and invites people to name their thoughts and feelings before deciding what to do next. Conversations are practical and rooted in what the person is actually facing day to day. Tracy uses a mix of approaches to match the person and the problem.
That can mean exploring emotional patterns with Emotionally-Focused Therapy, looking at attachment patterns, or using techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy to manage symptoms. She works collaboratively on realistic goals, such as reducing panic, improving sleep, or finding healthier coping strategies. Tracy explains options clearly and adapts her pace to each person's needs.
If you prefer short check-ins or longer talking sessions, she will discuss what might suit you best.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches for online work
Tracy commonly draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to explore emotional patterns and relationship dynamics. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name their emotions, which can be useful for those struggling with anxiety, depression or trauma. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and responses, and can help people change long-standing interaction patterns.She also uses Client-Centred Therapy to keep sessions person-led and respectful of individual pace. That approach focuses on listening and showing empathy so people feel understood before practical steps are introduced. Together, these approaches are used flexibly rather than as fixed rules; Tracy works with each person to choose what feels most helpful based on their needs and goals.
Online therapy offers practical ways to fit help into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues are useful. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or suit lower bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to have brief updates, record thoughts between sessions, or talk at times that fit around work and caring duties. Registered professionals and therapists can adapt these formats to help people make steady progress from wherever they are.
