More about Lucy
- 11 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I am a registered counsellor based in the UK with over 15 years of clinical experience. Some of the main issues I work with are stress and anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, work/life balance, fertility issues. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I will do my best to help support you in this process.
I am trained in Person-Centred and Existential therapy and have worked extensively with short to medium term clients, integrating other modalities; such as CBT techniques / Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Psychological First Aid for as and when a client may need it or is more suited to a slightly different way of working. I am open to and welcome having a discussion about what works and what doesn't when we are in therapy.
I work in a structured way, offering weekly sessions at a pre-agreed day/time, these sessions can sometimes be held on a fortnightly basis or longer between sessions for reflection, progression or when working towards an ending. We will discuss the number of sessions you feel comfortable working towards, which we will review, and can increase if required.
If the day/time that you would prefer are not showing on my schedule please get in touch and we can work something out that is convenient for us both.
If you choose to work with me I will help support you in reaching your goal for therapy.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
