About Lucia

Lucia Fleet is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people with stress, anxiety, relationships and codependency. She also supports those coping with trauma, addiction, low self-esteem and grief. Lucia works collaboratively, matching pace and focus to each person’s needs.

She offers a mix of listening and reflection. Some people prefer deep, analytical work to spot patterns. Others choose a slower focus on feelings and emotional healing. Lucia adapts to what helps an individual most.

Lucia trained and holds BACP accreditation, and she has around three years of professional experience. Her background includes work in varied settings, and she has current experience supporting people with gambling addiction through NHS services.

Her typical first sessions concentrate on getting to know each other. These meetings give clients a chance to decide if the working relationship feels right. Lucia emphasises a respectful, non-judgemental approach where the person remains the expert on their life.

She believes much pain comes from not valuing ourselves. Sessions aim to help people recognise unhelpful patterns, develop self-compassion and make practical changes. Lucia encourages clients to take the pace that suits them.

Lucia draws on a range of approaches, including client-centred work, psychodynamic ideas and transactional analysis. She commonly blends these methods to suit the situation and the goals a person brings to therapy.

Client-centred approaches and online therapy

Client-centred therapy focuses on being heard and understood. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps a person make sense of their feelings. This approach is often helpful for low self-esteem, relationship problems and codependency because it builds self-awareness and self-worth.

She also draws on psychodynamic ideas, which look at repeated life patterns and early relationships. This can help when past experiences keep affecting current behaviour and relationships. Transactional analysis is another influence and offers clear ways to notice communication and role patterns people get stuck in.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options and try methods that fit a person’s goals and preferences. That choice is decided collaboratively and can change as therapy progresses.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them explicitly. Online therapy can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier, for example by reducing travel or allowing a check-in during a lunch break. It can also allow different rhythms of work - shorter practical check-ins or longer reflective sessions - depending on what someone needs.
