Meet TracEy

I am a registered Counselling Psychologist based in New Plymouth. Being registered as a psychologist since 2006, I have experience working across a range of public sectors, corporates, private practice and in integrated health and rehabilitation. Prior to starting private practice, I spent 13 years in the government and corporate sectors working within the field of organisational psychology, human resources, coaching and consulting.
As a psychologist in private practice, my aim is to support you through a process of hope, healing, experiential growth and empowerment to live a more meaningful, connected and fulfilled life. This is achieved by providing a safe, non-judgmental, collaborative environment underpinned by genuineness, empathy, confidentiality, and a positive therapeutic relationship. I provide therapy to adults and couples, either in-person at my practice in New Plymouth or online.

“Reaching out for support in the face of psychological difficulties demonstrates tremendous courage and inner strength. I consider it a privilege to accompany individuals on some of their most challenging journeys, and I am deeply moved by the narratives and past experiences they share with me. I believe in the transformative potential that lies within each person. This fuels my passion for mental health and my drive to empower individuals, enabling them towards optimal well-being and personal growth.”
therapEutic approach
I believe that every individual is unique and deserves a personalized approach in therapy. My style of working, therefore, is client-centred and holistic by using a variety of therapeutic modalities in order to assist clients through their journey. I have found that this integrative framework increases the likelihood of greater successful treatment outcomes and enriches the individual’s experience of engaging in therapy. My practice encompasses a number of evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Brain-Working Recursive Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Mindfulness based approaches. I am committed to ensuring that your experience during therapy enables you to feel reassured about accessing professional support.
