About Tracey

Tracey Bonelle offers calm, steady support to people facing big life shifts and daily struggles. She meets clients with warmth and without judgement. Many come feeling anxious, tired, or unsure where to begin, and Tracey focuses on making the first steps easier and less daunting.

She listens closely and works at a pace that suits each person. Sessions aim to make sense of recurring patterns, process strong emotions, and build practical ways to cope day to day. The goal is to help people reconnect with their strengths and feel more grounded in themselves.

Tracey is a BACP - British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - registered member. She draws on several talking therapies to shape sessions around what the individual needs rather than forcing a single model.

Her approach is relational and collaborative. That means she pays attention to the relationship in the room and invites clients to be curious about their thoughts and reactions. Sometimes the work is talking and understanding; sometimes it is practising new ways of managing stress and intense feelings.

Tracey has six years of counselling experience supporting a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and family issues, trauma, addiction, neurodiversity and parenting challenges. She aims to offer clear, practical help alongside emotional support so people can move forward with more clarity and confidence.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships influence current patterns. It looks at how people connect and respond to others, which can help with relationship worry, abandonment feelings and attachment issues. Client-Centred Therapy centres the person’s own experience and pace. The therapist listens without judgement and helps people find their own solutions, which can suit those who need a gentle, patient approach.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tracey will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying things out, reflecting together, and adjusting as needs change rather than sticking to one fixed plan.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when days are tight. It can also make it simpler to include reflective work, mindfulness practice and skills coaching between meetings. Registered or accredited professionals can help tailor online sessions to what works best for each person.
