Tracey Simeonova
Practical, person-centred online counselling
About Tracey
Tracey Simeonova offers an approachable, person-centred way of working that focuses on the here and now. She draws on a mix of methods to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Tracey uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and attachment-informed ideas alongside client-centred listening to guide the work.
She is a BACP counsellor with 15 years of experience. Many people come when relationships feel painful, or when self-worth and body image become sources of constant worry.
Background and approach
Tracey helps people who are struggling with anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, anger and the ripple effects of trauma. She also supports those facing life transitions and the strain of parenting. Sessions are organised online using video calls, phone, live chat or messaging so conversations can fit into busy days.
Tracey aims to create a steady, non-judgemental space where worries can be put into words. She keeps language simple and practical. In the room she helps people identify patterns that keep problems going and experiments with small changes that make life more manageable.
Techniques might include mindfulness, values work, practical behaviour changes and talking through attachment patterns. The focus is on what will help day-to-day life. Tracey spent time in the NHS, charities, international schools across Asia and the Middle East, and independent practice.
She has also taught trainee counsellors on an integrative counselling degree programme. This background informs a calm, experience-based approach to distress and relationship difficulties.

How therapeutic approaches work online
The counsellor blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas with a client-centred stance. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values rather than reacting automatically. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns formed in close relationships and helps people understand how those patterns affect current relationships and feelings of safety.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will explore your goals, preferences and needs and then suggest approaches to try. That choice is made together and can change as sessions progress to find what helps most.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls recreate face-to-face dialogue for detailed conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter updates or when written reflection helps you process thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while accessing registered or accredited professionals.
