About Lucia

Counsellor (BACP), 7 years' experience. Lucia Burridge helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief and low self-esteem. She works with those facing relationship worries, addiction and trauma, as well as issues around sleep, eating and parenting. Sessions draw on client-centred practice alongside cognitive behavioural techniques.

Lucia trained with an Advanced Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy and holds BACP registration. She started counselling later after working as a legal secretary and after using counselling herself through difficult life events. That lived experience shaped her decision to practise and informs how she approaches work with clients.

Her style places the relationship between counsellor and client at the centre. She listens to the immediate problem and the life context around it. Practical CBT tools are offered when they fit the concern, for example to address unhelpful thoughts, sleep problems or patterns that feed anxiety.

Sessions are intended to be a place to talk through loss, anger, low mood or the strain of caregiving. Lucia also supports people coping with longer term conditions such as chronic pain or bipolar mood challenges by working through daily-management strategies and communication issues.

People who contact her can expect clear, straightforward conversation about aims and steps to take between sessions. She accepts clients from the United Kingdom and internationally and uses approaches that combine listening with active problem-solving.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Lucia uses Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy as her core methods. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and helping the person lead the conversation, which is useful for discussing loss, relationship strain and emotional overwhelm. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and offers practical strategies for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist and client will talk about current problems, goals and preferences, and then try methods that fit. Adjustments are made as progress and needs become clearer, so the way sessions are run can change over time.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or reducing the need to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use these practical benefits to help people continue therapy alongside everyday commitments.
