Hi, I'm Lucy a psychotherapist and counsellor based in Farnham, Surrey offering long and short-term counselling to individuals, couples and groups. I offer a safe, caring, inclusive and non-judgmental space where together we can explore the challenges you face.

I am passionate about helping people empower themselves to make the changes they wish through deeper understanding and awareness. I have experience and specialise in a wide range of issues including, anxiety, depression, overwhelm, work related stress, burnout, trauma, bereavement and grief. I also specialise in neurodivergence and am passionate about supporting neurodivergent adults and parents of neurodivergent children. In addition, I have extensive experience supporting women with issues such as mothering, relationships and menopause through different life stages. If you are suffering with any of these, I can help you.

My Approach

I am an integrative relational practitioner specialising in Transactional Analysis bringing together the different aspects of my training and experience to find the best way of working with each individual. The therapy I facilitate is through a collaborative process providing a safe space to explore and process thoughts, feelings, and behaviours to help you achieve your goals.

Transactional Analysis works from the premise that people can change, however deep-rooted their difficulties. It can be used to help you manage your problems by understanding and changing your thinking and behaviour. It can also help in exploring and changing deeper and sometimes unconscious psychological processes to better understand behaviour and feelings to resolve any difficulties.

Together we create a process and environment that works for you. My aim is to understand you and your needs, and work with you in a way that feels safe, supportive and appropriately challenging to help you make the changes that you want to make in your life.

Experience

I have clinical experience working for charities and in private practice with adults (18+) individually, in couples and in groups. I bring to my therapy practice my previous experience and professionalism as a Chartered surveyor working in companies, organisations, and consultancy, managing teams, and mentoring individuals.
