    About Traci

    Traci Lawler is a BACP counsellor who offers integrative therapy aimed at helping people feel more settled in their lives. She frames work around each person's story and supports them to notice patterns that keep them stuck. Traci encourages gentle curiosity, acceptance and practical steps towards change. She asks clients to aim for weekly sessions so progress can build steadily.

    Traci draws on a mix of approaches to suit the individual. She uses motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and CBT to spot and shift unhelpful thinking. Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at relationship patterns and self-worth. Sessions may include reflecting on the past to understand present difficulties, then learning new coping strategies for day-to-day life.

    People come to Traci for a wide range of issues including stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, eating and body image worries, anger and career problems. She also supports those dealing with trauma, intimacy issues, parenting strain, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related challenges. Additional focuses include communication problems, codependency, abandonment and caregiver stress.

    Her work stresses collaboration and respect for each person's expertise in their own life. Traci helps clients notice strengths, set boundaries and build kinder self-talk. Practical tools are offered alongside reflective conversation so people can try things between sessions.

    Traci practises in the United Kingdom and works in English. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time, and asks people to use the platform Start Therapy button to begin the matching process.

  2. How Traci blends approaches for online therapy

    Traci uses motivational interviewing to help people clarify what they want to change and find their own reasons to try new behaviours. This approach is useful when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about making a change.

    She also draws on attachment-based therapy to look at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and self-worth. This can help people who struggle with boundaries, trust or recurring relationship problems.

    Client-centred work is central to her practice, which means sessions are guided by the person's concerns and pace. The counsellor listens, reflects and supports the person to lead the direction of the work.

    Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Traci collaborates with each person to decide which methods best match their goals and preferences. That may mean trying one approach for a while and adjusting as progress is made.

    Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work and family life and avoiding travel time. If you want to know which session formats are available with this counsellor, please check the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to keep a regular weekly rhythm, try new coping strategies between meetings and build change into everyday routines.
