Tracey Murray

I am a BACP Accredited Integrative counsellor & CBT therapist. Over the years I've worked with many different issues, such as anxiety, depression, panic attacks, relationship problems, self esteem, OCD, bereavement, and much more. I have found that a mixture of talking and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy work well with many issues. There can be times in our lives when we find it hard to cope, and may be feeling sad, anxious, confused, or distressed. With empathy, and compassion, I can help you work through your thoughts and feelings, and find your way forward. I offer a non-judgemental, confidential and safe environment from my private practice which is based in Kingston upon Hull. 

My core training was Petruska Clarkson's Relational Model. I integrate Person Centred Therapy, Psychodynamic, Jungian Theory, Transactional Analysis, and Gestalt Therapy. I also completed a BA (Hons) in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and have done further training in Transactional Analysis Theory (TA). I have also completed a Diploma in Supervision using TA Theory.

All my training has been very relational, and also means rather than being restricted to using one model, this enables me to integrate the appropriate therapeutic interventions based on the relationship, to suit your unique needs. ​I can help you to understand your problems and what’s keeping you stuck or caught in a repetitive cycle. I will listen to you, and offer a warm, caring, empathic and confidential space that gives you the chance to share your deepest fears.

I offer in person sessions at my office in the centre of Kingston upon Hull. I also offer zoom, WhatsApp, and telephone appointments.

The supervision model I practise is The Seven-Eyed model developed by Hawkins & Shohet. I like this model as it fits in well with my training as an integrative counsellor. It focuses on the relationships between client, therapist, and supervisor and on the interplay between each relationship. 

What I offer:

I will help you to abide by the BACP ethical framework

Support you and your work

Help you to develop your own individual way of working

Inspire you

Offer trusted feedback

Helpful challenges

A learning experience for both or all of us

Creative ways of working

Humour where appropriate

More intense support for trainees

A collegial approach for more experienced therapists

I will offer you a safe space without fear of judgement. I believe supervision is a place for curiosity and reflection, whilst being supportive and challenging to help promote your awareness and understanding.

I enjoy sharing my experience, knowledge, and training with my supervisees’ and inevitably learning from them too. I believe supervision is a two way process, as you will bring your own experience, as well as your hopes and fears to enrich the supervisory relationship.

I can offer you the benefit of my experience from my ongoing private practice, which includes extensive experience of managing risk in addition to my professional experience and continued professional development training.

In addition to my private practice, I have worked on a clinical oversight team for an nhs counselling provider helping their counsellors manage clients difficult issues, which includes risk.
