Tracy Fiddler, BACP

Tracy Fiddler is a person-centred counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing midlife change, grief, anxiety and stress. She works with issues around relationships, self-esteem and sleep, and supports people struggling with trauma, depression and parenting concerns. Tracy uses plain, practical approaches and adapts sessions to what each person brings.

She spent more than 20 years working in education, which informs her understanding of school attendance, parenting strains, ADHD and autism in both children and adults. That background shapes how she frames conversations and suggests exercises that fit everyday life. Tracy combines talking with practical tasks and mindfulness to help people notice small shifts.

Her practice is guided by the person-centred approach. That means the work focuses on the client’s experience and pace, and Tracy aims to offer a non-judgemental space. She also draws on ideas from Gestalt and play therapy when appropriate, and uses theory-based activities to support progress between sessions.

Tracy describes her role as helping people make one positive change at a time. She adjusts sessions to each individual and tries to be flexible about what clients need. Her aim is to help people move toward clearer thinking, calmer days and better relationships.

Tracy holds BACP, which indicates her professional registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She works in English and is open to international clients.

How Tracy adapts person-centred work for online therapy

Tracy primarily uses a person-centred approach, which focuses on listening, understanding and following what the client brings. This approach helps when people are dealing with midlife change, grief, anxiety or relationship concerns because it centres the conversation on lived experience and the client's priorities.

She also draws on practical exercises, mindfulness and occasional Gestalt-influenced activities. These ideas add short, theory-based tasks that people can try between sessions to notice small shifts in mood, sleep and relationships. For parents and carers she can suggest play-based or activity-based options informed by her education experience.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tracy will discuss goals and preferences with each person and agree together which methods to try. That collaborative planning helps tailor the pace and focus so the sessions feel relevant to everyday life.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats were not specified in the biography. Ask which online or in-person options are available when you arrange sessions. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy week easier, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins if a shorter contact is helpful. It also lets people try different ways of working with words, exercises and mindfulness at times that suit their routine.
