About Lucia
Lucia Burridge welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by change, loss, stress or recurring thoughts. She aims to make sessions simple and approachable so someone worried on their phone can decide if she feels like the right fit. Lucia's style is straightforward and calm, with a focus on what someone wants to achieve in therapy.
She trained in counselling and holds BACP, which is shown as her credential. Lucia completed an Advanced Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy and later returned to practice after life events led her to use counselling herself.
Background and approach
That lived experience informs how she listens and responds. In sessions she combines Client-Centred Therapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, matching the approach to the person and the problem. The room is used to talk through painful events, understand patterns, and try small changes that can make daily life easier.
Lucia places importance on the relationship between counsellor and client. She works to help people feel comfortable and supported while they bring difficult topics into the conversation. Practical tools and simple steps are often part of the work.
Over seven years of practice, she has helped people with a wide range of concerns. She welcomes people from all backgrounds and offers support to those managing grief, anxiety, addiction and life transitions among other issues.

Approaches Lucia lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
How Lucia works online
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Lucia will collaborate with each person to decide whether to focus more on listening and reflection or on CBT-style tasks and exercises. The plan is shaped by the person's goals, day-to-day needs and preferences rather than a fixed programme.
Online therapy can make fitting counselling into a busy life easier. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a workday and make attendance simpler when managing health or mobility issues. Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques used in person to an online setting, keeping sessions focused on practical steps and steady progress.
