Lucy Peters helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck. She meets clients with a calm, straightforward style and focuses on practical steps that make day-to-day life easier. Her approach is warm and non-judgemental, so people can talk about hard things without feeling criticised.

Lucy has been working as a counsellor for ten years and holds the NCPS credential. She has supported people coping with stress, anxiety and depression, and she also helps those dealing with trauma and abuse.

Background and approach

She works with parents who are under pressure and with people facing relationship and intimacy-related issues. She also addresses concerns linked to eating and sleeping, anger, grief and self-esteem. Lucy has additional focus on ADHD, hoarding, phobias and supporting people who are hearing impaired.

Her experience spans a range of everyday challenges and longer-term difficulties. Sessions aim to be practical and collaborative. Lucy listens first, then helps clients set small goals and try manageable changes between meetings.

Progress is tracked in simple ways so people can see what is working. Lucy offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging for those outside her region. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that suits them.

The subscription model used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

Evidence-informed approaches and online therapy options

Lucy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and make changes that matter. One approach focuses on practical coping skills for anxiety and stress, helping people notice triggers, try breathing and grounding strategies, and test new ways of responding. Another approach addresses trauma-related difficulties by helping people process difficult memories at a pace that feels manageable, with support for emotional regulation and safety. These methods are aimed at reducing day-to-day distress and improving how people cope with relationships, parenting duties and life transitions.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Lucy will listen to your concerns, discuss different methods and together decide which fits your goals and preferences. She adapts techniques over time and checks in about progress, so the plan stays aligned with what you need.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to give practical options. Video is useful for a fuller conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be better when bandwidth is limited or when a quick check-in fits a short break. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer typing or need brief, on-the-go support. These formats make it easier to book therapy from different places and schedules while keeping the work collaborative and goal orientated.
