About Lucia

Lucia Fleet is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, grief and issues around self-esteem and intimacy. Lucia is based in the United Kingdom and works in English.

Lucia uses a calm, listening approach and adapts to each person’s pace. Some people prefer to move quickly and look at patterns in their life. Others prefer to focus on feelings and take more time. She combines listening with gentle analysis to match what clients need in the moment.

Her work often addresses deeper issues such as childhood trauma, attachment and abandonment. She also supports people with ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, body image struggles and eating or sleeping problems. Lucia commonly helps people who are coping with life changes, caregiving stress or compassion fatigue.

She follows client-centred ways of working, which focus on the person rather than the therapist directing the process. She draws on other approaches when useful, and keeps sessions collaborative so clients stay in control of their pace and goals.

Early sessions concentrate on getting to know each other and deciding if the relationship feels right. Lucia encourages people to use those first meetings to see if they feel comfortable and understood. She makes day-time appointments at UK GMT hours and often works with international clients whose time zones mean evening sessions for them.

Lucia lists adoption and foster care among areas she focuses on and can help people talk through related feelings and questions.

How Lucia uses client-centred work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person as they are. The counsellor offers empathy and gentle reflection so people can explore feelings and make their own choices about change. This approach is helpful for anxiety, low self-worth, relationship issues and many kinds of life stress.

Lucia adapts her way of working to each person's needs. She will discuss different approaches with clients and together they decide what feels most useful. That collaborative process helps make sure the work fits the client's goals and pace rather than imposing a fixed method.

Confirm the session formats before booking because the original profile does not list which online or in-person formats are offered. In general online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life because it removes travel time and can allow meetings during a lunch break or between other commitments. It also lets people connect across time zones, which is why she often sees international clients whose evenings match her daytime hours.
