About Tracey
Tracey Bonelle is a counsellor who focuses on helping parents and individuals facing common life stresses. She welcomes people who feel overwhelmed, anxious, grieving, or stuck. Her aim is to offer a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk openly and begin to make sense of their situation.
She uses a collaborative style and moves at a pace that suits each person. Tracey listens carefully to understand strengths, patterns and pressures.
Background and approach
Together clients can process emotions and try practical steps to feel steadier day to day. Tracey uses relational and attachment ideas to look at how past and present relationships influence current feelings. She also draws on client-centred methods to keep sessions focused on each person’s needs.
These approaches help when the work is about parenting strain, relationship struggles, grief, or coping with change. DBT skills and mindfulness are available for people who need tools to manage intense emotions and distressing thoughts. Psychodynamic ideas support people who want to understand deeper patterns that repeat over time.
The mix is adapted to what a person needs in the moment. She holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, MBACP, and has six years of experience in this role. Sessions are offered in English and available to people in the United Kingdom and internationally.

How Tracey’s approaches work online
Tracey draws on attachment-based ideas to help people see how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. This approach can be useful for understanding parenting struggles, connection worries, and patterns that keep repeating.She also uses client-centred counselling which focuses on listening, empathy and the person’s own goals. That way sessions stay grounded in what each client needs and wants to work on. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills and mindfulness strategies are offered when people need practical techniques to manage strong emotions, reduce overwhelm, and improve coping day to day.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options and adapt methods based on a person's needs, preferences and goals. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different life rhythms. Video calls suit longer, face-to-face style conversations. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text messaging can be useful for shorter reflections, ongoing support between sessions, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around parenting, work and other commitments.
