About Tracey
Counsellor Tracey Simeonova is a BACP registered practitioner with 15 years' experience working with adults and teenagers. She works in the United Kingdom and with international clients. Tracey focuses on relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, self‑esteem, anxiety, addiction and grief among other concerns.
Tracey offers person‑centred counselling and draws on a range of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment work, cognitive behavioural ideas and existential thinking. Sessions open with what matters most to the client. The emphasis is on clear, honest conversation and practical steps to notice and change patterns that cause distress.
Her background includes roles in charities, the NHS, international schools in Asia and the Middle East, and private practice. She has also taught trainee counsellors on an integrative counselling degree programme. This range of settings informs a flexible, everyday approach to common problems such as low self‑worth, body image concerns and cycles of avoidance or addiction.
Tracey often works with people facing painful relationship patterns or transitions. That can mean ending or changing a close relationship, grieving a loss, coping with life changes or reconnecting to a clearer sense of self. She helps clients name what is happening and practice different ways of responding.
If you prefer to start online, Tracey offers online person‑centred counselling. To begin she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Tracey uses therapeutic approaches online
Tracey combines person‑centred work with structured methods to help people notice and change patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is about noticing thoughts and feelings without getting pulled into them, then choosing actions that match personal values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and sticking cycles of avoidance.Attachment‑based work looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating. It helps when people struggle with trust, abandonment fears, communication problems or repeated relationship patterns. Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and a non‑directive way of exploring what matters now.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Tracey will discuss goals and preferences and together they will try ways of working that fit the person's needs. That conversation shapes what is used in later sessions.
The profile indicates Tracey offers online person‑centred counselling, but does not list other formats. Please confirm which session formats are available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑in meetings when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use online work to continue regular sessions for people who live at a distance or who prefer remote meetings.
