About me and my therapy practice
Hello, I’m Lucy, I’m an integrative counsellor and I offer remote, accessible therapy to suit you.
Reaching out for support isn't always easy so simply being here is a valuable place to begin. A bit about myself, my interest in counselling developed from my experience working in the public sector, where I’ve supported individuals from all different backgrounds in navigating life’s challenges. I feel very passionately that everyone deserves accessible, respectful, and empowering support—no matter their circumstances. I trained as an integrative counsellor which means I can use a blend of techniques to suit individual needs. My core model is person centred which is a non-directive approach. This means that I will work collaboratively with you to support and guide rather than trying to fix. I also hold training in psychodynamic theory, where our childhood experiences impact our present and cognitive behavioural therapy where tools and techniques can be helpful in addressing patterns of behaviour.
