About Tracey

Tracey Lynne Desjardins is a counsellor who helps people facing depression, anxiety and life changes. She speaks plainly and listens carefully to what matters most to each person. Sessions focus on practical steps that make day-to-day life feel more manageable.

Tracey trained as a Therapeutic Counsellor in 2020 and holds NCPS. She draws on several approaches to tailor how she works, including client-centred listening, emotionally-focused methods and mindfulness practices. Her past roles in the criminal justice sector inform her steady, down-to-earth style.

Background and approach

She uses the inner child model to look at how early experiences shape current feelings and habits. That work aims to identify patterns that keep someone stuck and to find kinder, more helpful ways of responding. Tracey also brings techniques from motivational interviewing to support people who want change but struggle with moving forward.

Bereavement and grief are an area of particular interest. She volunteers with Cruse Bereavement Services and has experience helping people navigate loss and the strong emotions that follow. Tracey also works with people affected by domestic abuse, trauma, addiction and difficulties with self-esteem.

Sessions are practical and conversational. People can expect to talk about what is happening now, how it connects to the past, and small steps to try between meetings. The focus is on clear goals and steady progress suited to each person's pace.

Online support

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on warm, non-judgemental listening and helping people find their own solutions. It is useful for depression and low mood because it creates space to be heard and to explore what matters most. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people understand and shift patterns in their emotional responses and relationships. It can be helpful when strong feelings or relationship patterns are getting in the way of daily life. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and grounding techniques to manage stress, panic and intrusive thoughts, and supports calmer daily routines.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tracey will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that suit them. Decisions about which methods to use are collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and have deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflection or flexible scheduling around work and family commitments.
