About Lucia

Lucia Fleet is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, addiction and parenting pressures. She also supports people facing trauma, grief, intimacy concerns, ADHD and related challenges.

Lucia uses a straightforward and person-focused way of working. She listens and helps people name patterns that cause repeated problems. Some clients choose a more analytical pace to look at life patterns. Others focus on emotions and painful memories. Lucia adapts her approach based on what each person needs.

Her practice often addresses early life and attachment issues, abandonment and foster or adoption related struggles. She also helps with body image, codependency, communication and blended family challenges. Practical coping strategies and clearer communication are common parts of the work.

Sessions begin with getting to know one another and deciding whether to continue. Lucia describes the collaboration as joint problem-solving, not a place for quick fixes. She encourages taking time to find the right fit and using early sessions to check that the working approach feels right.

Her aim is to help people recognise unhelpful patterns, increase self-awareness and learn to treat themselves with more understanding. Lucia notes therapy will not fix everything, but it can help people make meaningful changes and reduce the weight of everyday difficulties.

How sessions work

How client-centred work translates to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's own perspective at the heart of the work. The counsellor reflects what the client says, helps them name feelings and supports them to make their own decisions. This approach is often used for anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship stress and parenting worries. Lucia also combines listening with more analytical discussion when needed. That way she can help identify recurring patterns and practical habits that reinforce problems. For some people this looks like talking through life history and current choices. For others it is clearer, step-by-step problem solving. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will work together with the client to decide whether to focus on emotional processing, pattern analysis or a mix of both. Goals, preferences and what feels manageable will shape how sessions proceed. Confirm the available session formats before booking because the profile does not list them explicitly. Many people find online sessions fit around family life, work breaks or caring duties and can make attending easier. Online work can offer shorter check-ins, flexibility around timing and the chance to continue therapy when relocating between areas. Registered or accredited professionals can help tailor session length and pace to fit everyday life.
