About Lucia

Lucia Fleet is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and eating and body image concerns. She also works with people dealing with trauma, addiction, relationship and intimacy issues, and challenges such as ADHD and grief. Lucia writes in a direct, approachable way and aims to meet clients where they are.

She uses a collaborative style. Some clients want to dig quickly into life patterns and think things through. Others prefer a slower emotional approach and need time to feel heard. Lucia adapts to both styles and sometimes mixes them within sessions to suit each person.

Her background includes work in a range of settings and clinical roles. She has practical experience supporting people with gambling addiction and domestic abuse, and she has worked with clients affected by childhood trauma and mood concerns. This varied experience shapes how she responds to different problems.

Lucia follows several psychological approaches and draws most on client-centred ways of working. That means she focuses on listening, reflecting and helping people make choices that fit their values. She encourages self-acceptance and aims to help people notice unhelpful patterns that hold them back.

Initial sessions are used to get to know each other and to decide whether to continue together. Lucia works daytime hours in UK GMT and often meets international clients at times that suit their time zones. She invites people to take time choosing a counsellor and uses early sessions to check fit.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy

Client-centred Therapy focuses on understanding a person's experience through careful listening and empathy. It helps people who are struggling with self-worth, relationship problems, anxiety, eating concerns and life changes by prioritising the person's own perspective and choices. The approach encourages people to identify their own solutions while receiving steady support from the counsellor.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then suggest ways of working that might suit them. That choice is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses to match what feels most helpful.

The original profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm available options before booking. Many people find remote therapy fits into busy days more easily and makes regular sessions simpler to keep. Online work can make it easier to arrange appointments across time zones and to have shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt sessions to focus on emotional processing, practical planning or pattern-spotting while fitting therapy into everyday life.
