Lucy Peacock, NCPS, BACP

Lucy Peacock is a counsellor who combines several therapeutic approaches to help people manage major life stresses. She is BACP registered and holds NCPS accreditation. Her work focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy difficulties, addictions, and coping with life changes.

She sees people aged 16 and over and supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, identity issues, perinatal and postnatal worries, and personality-related concerns. Sessions centre on clear conversation and practical steps that fit each person’s situation. Lucy aims to be respectful and compassionate in every meeting.

Her approach is flexible and tailored. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns, client-centred listening to follow what matters to the person, and cognitive behavioural techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Mindfulness and Jungian perspectives are also available where relevant to the client’s needs.

Lucy has five years of professional experience working with adults on emotional and behavioural problems. She notes caregiver stress, ageing and geriatric issues, abandonment, blended family difficulties and communication problems among other focus areas she addresses.

Practical next steps are straightforward: use the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to availability. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Lucy’s approaches can work online

Lucy uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. This can help when relationship patterns cause ongoing stress or when building trust matters in therapy. She also draws on client-centred therapy, which focuses on listening closely and following what each person brings to sessions to shape the work together.

Lucy also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. This approach can be useful for anxiety, low mood and practical coping skills. Together these methods allow room for both emotional understanding and hands-on strategies to manage everyday problems.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when helpful. It also supports continuity if someone moves or is living abroad, as international clients are accepted.
