About Tracey
Tracey Simeonova is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 15 years of practice. She works with adults and teenagers and focuses on relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, stress and anger among other challenges. Tracey offers online person-centred work and draws on several therapeutic approaches to help people make practical changes in day-to-day life.
Tracey has worked in charities, the NHS, international schools across Asia and the Middle East, and in private practice. She has also taught trainee counsellors on an Integrative Counselling degree programme. That variety of settings has shaped a straightforward style that suits people who want clear talking and useful tools.
In sessions she uses person-centred principles alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. That mix is used to help people notice patterns, try new responses, and change behaviours that keep causing problems. The work covers issues such as attachment difficulties, codependency, addictions, grief and eating concerns.
She is used to helping people who struggle with relationship patterns - whether that is the relationship with yourself or with others. Tracey supports people dealing with shame, body image worries, commitment and communication problems, and the repeated cycles that leave them feeling stuck.
Practical steps are part of the offering. People usually talk things through, try small behavioural experiments, and bring what happens between sessions back into the conversation. The aim is clearer thinking and better day-to-day coping rather than quick fixes.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Tracey combines person-centred work with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). Person-centred counselling focuses on listening, acceptance and building a trusting therapeutic relationship so people can talk through hard feelings and concerns. ACT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values, which can be useful for anger, avoidance and low mood. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to reduce distress and change repeating patterns.Deciding which approach to use is part of the work together. Tracey will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then adapt the mix of methods collaboratively rather than imposing a single model. That means sessions can shift toward skills work, reflective conversation or behavioural experiments as needed.
The biography indicates she offers online person-centred therapy, but it does not list specific session formats. Confirm the precise online session options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit around work and family life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy can be attended more consistently. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use online work to make therapy more practical for everyday schedules.
