How Tracey’s approaches translate to online therapy
Tracey draws on attachment-based work and dialectical behaviour therapy alongside client-centred practice. Attachment-based work explores how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people understand why they react in certain ways. This can be useful for worries about connection, abandonment or attachment issues.Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) focuses on practical skills for regulating strong emotions, tolerating distress and improving communication. It is often used when feelings feel overwhelming or when coping strategies have become unhelpful. Client-centred practice keeps the person’s experience central, aiming to build a trusting space where someone feels heard and can reflect on their goals.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That might mean focusing more on skills in one period and more on understanding patterns in another.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and seeing non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life, and let registered or accredited professionals offer support across locations.
