About Lucy
Lucy Peacock is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and holds NCPS accreditation. She has five years of experience and lists stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger and depression among the concerns she supports people with.
She describes an integrative way of working that draws on a few different methods. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits, practising different responses, and talking through life events that are causing distress. Conversations are practical and aimed at clear steps the client can try between sessions.
Lucy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy where helpful to identify patterns of thinking and behaviour that maintain problems. She also brings attachment-informed ideas to understand how relationships shape feelings, and client-centred listening to keep the work anchored in what the person wants to address. Mindfulness and Jungian perspectives may be included when relevant.
Her approach is collaborative - she works with each person to agree goals and actions. She notes that exceptions to how she works will be discussed up front. The emphasis is on straightforward techniques and short-term aims when appropriate, alongside space to talk about deeper issues if needed.
Practical matters such as fees vary depending on location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients are asked to select the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
How Lucy applies therapeutic approaches during online work
Lucy commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going. CBT sessions tend to focus on practical exercises, short-term goals and homework tasks to test new ways of responding.She also brings an attachment-based perspective to understand how earlier and current relationships affect feelings and behaviour. That approach is useful when relationship patterns, abandonment or attachment issues are part of the concern. Client-centred work means the counsellor listens actively and shapes sessions around what the person most wants to address.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to agree goals and try methods that fit the client’s needs and preferences. Sessions can shift emphasis over time, using CBT techniques for immediate coping and attachment or client-centred work for deeper relational themes.
