About Lucia
Lucia Burridge is a counsellor who focuses on helping people who are feeling stressed, anxious or overwhelmed. She works with worries about loss, relationships, self-worth and life changes. Lucia uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people find ways to cope and move forward.
She qualified with an Advanced Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy and now carries seven years of experience working with a wide range of concerns. Her own experience of seeking counselling after traumatic events shaped how she listens and the care she offers.
Background and approach
She aims to make sessions feel calm and approachable from the first meeting. Lucia combines Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, tailoring sessions to each person. That means she pays close attention to the relationship while also working on thoughts and behaviour that get in the way.
She explains ideas plainly and helps clients try out practical skills between sessions. Sessions include time to talk through what matters most and to set simple, realistic goals. Lucia welcomes people from diverse backgrounds and focuses on building trust at a comfortable pace.
She encourages small steps and keeps tasks manageable so progress feels achievable. People come to her with many issues, including anxiety, depression, grief, addiction and sleep difficulties. She also supports those facing parenting strain, career changes, anger and identity concerns.
The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.
How her approaches work online
Lucia uses Client-Centred Therapy to create a warm, accepting space where people can speak freely and be heard. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting what someone says and supporting their own decisions, which helps with issues like low self-worth and grief.She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and to try practical steps that change behaviour. CBT is useful for anxiety, sleep problems and mood concerns because it breaks issues into manageable tasks and experiments.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lucia will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's goals and preferences. Together they set small, clear goals and check what is helping or needs to change as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give options that fit different lives. Video lets people see each other and work in a familiar way. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited and take less setup. Live chat or text sessions can suit short check-ins, busy schedules or people who prefer writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the focus on practical steps and steady progress.
