Tracy Preston

I currently have availability in my practice.

I have been a supervisor since 2021 and have provided supervision for person centred counsellors.  I also provide supervision in the workplace for teachers and heads of year to manage the stresses of working in education.

I work in a person centred way bringing a depth of knowledge from over 25 years as a counsellor in private practice and in schools - working with both adults and children.  I understand the complexities of this work and the support that good supervision can provide - having benefitted myself from excellent supervision - I am keen to provide the same support for my supervisees.

Mon-Fri 4pm-7.30pm

Since 1998, I’ve helped my clients break through the obstacles that seem to be holding them back in life. Life's too short to be unhappy, unsure, or unfulfilled. Let me help you learn and develop better ways to handle the issues that are standing in the way of your goals. Get in touch today to see what I can do for you.

Areas of expertise: self harm; eating disorders; anxiety, mental health and wellbeing; depression; bereavement; self esteem; coaching; relationship issues.

​

In 2002 I started working at King Alfred School in Hampstead, as a Counsellor. I am now the Head of Counselling for the school for children and teenagers from ages 4-18 where I have developed a counselling service that helps all students navigate many of the issues facing them in their lives. As a member of the Senior Leadership Team I am involved in developing the Wellbeing and Pastoral plan for the school.

In addition I have been the Designated Safeguarding Lead since 2014 and am now also a fully qualified clinical supervisor for other Counsellors and pastoral staff.

STEP 1

Referral is made via website and there is an email information sharing exchange between me and parent/client to assess suitability and availability for step 2

STEP 2

Initial meeting with client/parents or guardians. This can be face-to-face or via Zoom. During this time we can chat through family history, context to the current challenges, discuss any concerns and questions and cover consent and confidentiality agreements. This is then followed by an initial meeting and assessment with the child (usually at the same time). This consultation session lasts 50 minutes. .

STEP 3

If all parties are in agreement weekly, individual 1-1 sessions with the child/client begin. These sessions are payable in advance of the first session, usually in blocks of 6.
