Lucy has honestly helped me in so many ways. It’s only been 5 months and I don’t even recognise the person I was when I started this. She has done so much for me and I am so grateful I got paired with her.

Lucy is amazing at listening and validating my feelings which is something I’ve never had. I was weary of starting therapy but Lucy has definitely helped get me over those fears and by listening to me has empowered me to sort my head out and let go of old emotions I’ve needed to let go for a very long time
More about Lucy
- 6 years' experience
- Female
- NCPS
I am a registered Integrative Therapist in the UK with 6 years of professional work experience. Integrative means I use various different modalities depending on the issues a client may present with, for example Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is useful for identifying and challenging unhelpful thoughts and to learn practical self-help strategies. Whereas sometimes it is more appropriate to use a more open space approach, allowing the client to work through and reflect on their experiences in order to unpick them and make sense of them.
In my counselling career I have worked within a women's charity which was located in an area of low socioeconomic status. This meant that many of the women were impacted by having limited access to financial, educational, social and health resources and with this comes many different implications and barriers. Many of these women experiencing challenging childhoods and ongoing traumas and were stuck in this cycle. Working with these women allowed them to receive the support they needed to work through their traumas past and present and to feel more empowered going forward.
Currently, I am working for the NHS Talking Therapies as well as in in private practice where I contract out to BetterHelp. Through this work and my previous work at the women's charity, I have supported clients through grief, depression, anxiety, childhood traumas, sexual abuse, parenting issues, relationship issues, substance use by self/loved one... to name a few!
As a person-centred therapist, I allow the client to bring their agenda and listen without judgement. I believe that you are the expert of your own self and your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Knowledgeable and understanding.
Lucy is great, very patient and understanding and insightful. I’m not sure how she keeps up with all the details I share with her. Highly recommend.
Lucy is very understanding and a lovely person
Lucy is a caring, attentive and compassionate therapist who can decipher meaning from my sometimes chaotic and longwinded rambles. Through her, I have gained perspective on how I am feeling and I have learnt tools that can help me to approach many of the difficult situations I can be confronted by.
