Background and approach

Her practice includes a focus on compassion fatigue, caregiving stress, codependency and impulse-related problems. Lucia uses client-centred dialogue to help people feel understood. That means she follows the person rather than pushing a rigid plan.

She also brings psychodynamic ideas into sessions to help uncover patterns that keep problems repeating. In a session she creates space to talk and to think about what might change. Conversations are tailored to each person, and goals are agreed together.

Lucia aims to help people build safer routines and clearer boundaries as needed. Taking the first step can feel hard, and Lucia offers steady, non-judgemental support while clients work through difficult feelings. She invites people to take small practical steps and to reflect on what matters most to them.

How Lucia's approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's pace. The counsellor reflects what is said, helps people feel heard and supports them to make their own choices. It often helps with anxiety, low self-esteem and decisions about relationships.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at repeated patterns in feelings and relationships. It helps people understand how past experiences can shape present reactions and coping strategies. This approach can be useful when issues keep returning despite efforts to change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lucia will explore goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then agree a way of working together. The plan can be adjusted as therapy progresses so it stays relevant to each person's needs.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let you use visual cues and hold fuller conversations. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or when a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for shorter exchanges, keeping a record of thoughts, or fitting therapy into a busy day. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to make counselling more accessible and easier to fit into everyday life.
