Lucy Hill offers calm, straightforward support for people dealing with anxiety, stress, grief and life changes. She is a BACP counsellor who aims to make first steps into therapy feel less daunting. Her approach is inclusive and non-judgemental.

Lucy wants clients to feel heard and understood from the start. She works in a Humanistic, existential way that focuses on what matters to the individual. Sessions help people make sense of difficult feelings, examine values, and decide what matters next.

Background and approach

Conversations are practical and down-to-earth, not full of jargon. Lucy has four years' clinical practice as a BACP counsellor and more than a decade of wider experience in helping roles. That background includes supporting people from different cultural backgrounds, neurodivergent people and members of the LGBT community.

She draws on that experience to adapt how she works to each person's needs. Typical concerns she supports include relationships, parenting strains, coping with change, addiction, trauma and mood difficulties such as depression and bipolar issues. She also addresses sleeping and eating problems, anger, self-esteem, career worries and compassion fatigue.

Sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone conversations, live chat or text messaging. Costs vary with location and are billed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps pair someone with the right therapist and then a session is scheduled according to availability.

Existential approaches and online therapy

Existential Therapy invites people to look at what gives life meaning and what matters most to them. It asks straightforward questions about values, responsibility and choice, and can help with feeling stuck, coping with big changes, grief and questions about identity.

Humanistic elements emphasise the therapeutic relationship and a warm, non-judgemental space. This approach supports people who need a listener who will help them reflect and make practical decisions rather than offering quick fixes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and how they like to work, then suggest ways of proceeding. That conversation is collaborative and may adapt as needs change over time.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into everyday life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth or being on camera is difficult. Live chat or text messaging can suit shorter check-ins and people who prefer written conversation. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and other commitments.
