About Traci
Traci Lawler is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has four years of professional experience and offers a steady, empathetic presence for people feeling stuck, unsure, or worn down by life. Traci explains things plainly and helps clients imagine what a more satisfying life might look like. She encourages people to take small steps toward change and to be kinder to themselves along the way.
Traci blends several practical approaches to suit each person she meets. She listens to life stories and looks for patterns that show up in present struggles. Sometimes that means reflecting on earlier experiences to find roots of current difficulties, and other times it means learning new day-to-day skills to manage stress, anxiety or low mood.
Her interests include work on self‑esteem, boundaries and identity. She supports people who feel stuck in relationships or careers, are coping with loss, or are trying to manage addictive behaviours and eating concerns. Traci also works with issues such as ADHD, trauma and compassion fatigue.
Sessions are intended as a regular weekly commitment so therapeutic change can build gradually. She aims to help people find healthier coping strategies, clearer communication, and greater self-acceptance. Traci encourages collaboration about goals and methods so each plan fits the person’s life.
Traci practises in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. To start, she asks people to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule according to her availability.
How Traci’s approaches translate to online work
Traci draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand why they react a certain way to closeness or distance and supports work on trust and connection. Client-Centred Therapy is also central to her practice and focuses on listening without judgement, helping clients feel heard as they name their goals and make choices.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to break down unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviours in everyday life. CBT can be useful for anxiety, low mood and managing unhelpful habits by teaching practical exercises to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Traci will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then tailor methods as conversations progress. She treats therapy as a collaboration where adjustments are normal and expected.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people practise skills in their everyday environment and bring those experiences back into sessions for discussion.
