“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.”
— Carl Rogers
Services
Build confidence, resilience, and sustainable life strategies.
Wabi Sabi Psychology provides individual therapy using a person-centred approach. All services are designed to meet clients where they are and support them in achieving their chosen goals.
Appointments are primarily available face-to-face; Telehealth and phone appointments are considered on a case-by-case basis with prior arrangement. A standard therapeutic session is 50 minutes, and we agree on how often these need to be together.
Please note that Wabi Sabi Psychology is a therapy service and does not provide an Assessment Service for ADHD and Autism. However, intake, clinical judgement, and screening measures can be used to provide a ‘provisional ’diagnosis and referral for formal diagnostic assessment where warranted.
Tracey uses a person-centred approach which focuses on maximising ‘your’ ability to find your own solutions, all the time walking beside you with the right amount of support.

What is a Neurodiversity Affirming Approach?
This approach highlights that Autism and ADHD are not disorders or something to be fixed, it’s just a different way of thinking, feeling, and interacting.
It emphasizes accommodating for ADHD and autism, rather than expecting conformity to neurotypical standards, fostering inclusivity and diverse thinking.
How can a psychologist help?
A psychologist can support individuals by offering tailored therapy, using evidence-based approaches to address functional and mental health challenges. By using scientific methods, they study the factors that influence the way people think, feel, behave, and learn.
They help build coping skills, improve self-awareness, and overcome challenges such as stress, anxiety, and depression. Psychologists also work to create strategies for navigating social situations, executive function difficulties, and enhancing overall well-being.
