Hi, it is good to meet you.
My name is Lucia. I am a credentialed therapist in the UK with 4 years of professional work experience in a wide range of settings and with a range of clients.
I have experience in helping clients with many issues, in particular, childhood trauma, addiction, gambling, sex addiction, ADHD, domestic abuse and depression and anxiety. I also work for the NHS in their gambling addiction service.
I will work with you where you are at and go at the pace that you want. Some people want to work very fast and deeply and explore patterns in their life that are holding them back. They appreciate my analytical way of working. Others want to work more slowly and focus on their emotions and pain and they appreciate my empathy and ability to really listen and understand what they are going through. Sometimes people need a mixture of both approaches.
I don't belive that I have all the answers. I am a professional but you are the expert on your life and I trust you to know what is right for you (even if you don't trust yourself yet). I work with you, collaboratively, to unpick what is and isn't working in your life and to help you enjoy your life more, to change distructive patterns and to learn to accept and forgive yourself.
I believe that a lot of our pain comes from not liking ourselves and not accepting who we are. A core part of our work together is to learn to appreciate and value your worth and strengths as an indivdual. Life is so much better when we understand ourself and have compassion for ourself, no matter what we have done.
I follow different psychological approaches depending on what feels appropriate at the time, including psychodynamic, person centred and TA.
Our first few sessions will all be about getting know each other and for me to learn about you, and for you to decide if you would like to work with me. It is very important that you feel comfortable and safe with the therapist you work with, so please do take your time to find the right person for you and use the initial sessions to make that decision and to check that you feel comfortable.
Therapy doesn’t cure everything and doesn’t have all the answers but it can really help and be a very powerful tool. Often it can be life changing. By providing a non judgemental space for clients my aim is that they become more aware of the things in their lives that are holding them back and can make positive changes in their lives.
Taking the first step to see a therapist and to explore our lives in more depth takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
Please note I only work during the day and not evenings (UK time GMT) or weekends (however I do often work with international clients and because of the time difference it is often evenings for them).

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
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.

Lucia has been such a help so far. I'm thankful BetterHELP connected me to her
Lucia is a wonderful therapist, I totally recommend her !
She made me feel so comfortable from the getgo that I was able to pour out my emotions and feelings to her. She's a great listener and gives great advice! Very thankful I got paired up with her. <3
Lucia has been paramount in helping me understand myself. My path here and now my path to the future. Lucia regularly checks in with me, reviews my rationale and offers guidance and a kind and accepting ear. Lucia is very good at opening a topic and then allowing me to problem solve and work through it, it's very clever! I can sense the shift in my thoughts and feelings. I cannot thank Lucia and the betterhelp class mentors enough. It's seems so obvious when you get through the smoke and mirrors of your mind, but without support - actually making the change would have been impossible! I'm still finding my feet, but truly have found compassion for myself, I am building my resilience and habits daily. Long may it continue. Bless Lucia and this service without it, I don't think I would ever have seen the point in anything again.
Lucia has been a great listener to me and has been a good professional friend so far. Thank you so much, Lucia.
Lucia is wondrful to talk to and has a very good grasp of what actually matters and is also very intuitive . She expresses herself well and propagates a great discussion naturally with the abiltity to ask good questions to tackle the issues at hand
Lucia is such a kind and understanding person. I recommend her with all my heart! She made me to feel safe and comfortable every time !
Lucia helped me with my health anxiety, we explored my past, she understood me, supported me, is very friendly , compassionate and gave me solutions on what steps I could take to help with my anxiety. Thank you Lucia!
Just amazing
Lucia has been in incredibly positive influence - over a relatively short timescale. I have been genuinely surprised at how quickly she has helped me get to a place of understanding about some of my challenges and re-framed things, so that I can make positive steps forward. I would highly recommend her / not only for her knowledge, but for her empathetic and caring approach.
I have had only a few sessions with Lucia but they have been very pleasant and helpful. She is very caring and understanding and offers good insights. And also follows up and checks in. Thank you Lucia
