About

About Tracey

Tracey Bonelle offers a welcoming, non-judgemental space for people feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck. She greets new clients with warmth and listens carefully to what matters to them. Sessions aim to help people make sense of repeating patterns, manage strong emotions, and find practical ways to cope day to day.

Tracey works collaboratively and moves at a pace that suits each person. She takes time to hear your story and to notice strengths you can build on.

Background and approach

Therapy can involve talking things through, reflecting on past relationships, and learning small skills to feel steadier between sessions. Her approach is relational and integrative, which means the focus stays on the connection between counsellor and client and on what helps in real life.

She draws on attachment-informed ideas to look at early patterns, and on client-centred ways of working to centre the person’s experience. Dialectical behaviour ideas and mindfulness practices are used when helpful to manage intense emotions and reduce overwhelm. Tracey has six years of experience as a BACP - British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - registered member.

She has worked in health services, education and community settings, supporting people with a wide range of issues including anxiety, grief, trauma, neurodivergence and relationship concerns. People bring very different needs to therapy. Tracey balances listening with practical steps, adapting the work to what feels most useful.

She aims to help clients reconnect with their own resilience and make clearer choices about the next steps in their lives.

Online support

How her approaches transfer to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and feelings; online sessions can provide space to notice those patterns and to reflect on ways to change them. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience, offering a steady, supportive presence that can be present in remote sessions as well. Dialectical behaviour therapy ideas bring practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving coping, which can be taught and practised during conversations online.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tracey will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful, then suggest ways of working that suit each person. Decision-making about methods and pace is shared so the client remains in control of changes over time.

The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so please check the current options before booking. Many people find online therapy useful for fitting sessions into busy lives, reducing travel time, and allowing for shorter check-ins when needed. Remote work can make it easier to access help from different locations, and it still allows for the relational, practical and skills-based elements described above. Registered or accredited professionals can adjust sessions to your needs and help you try different approaches until you find what works.
