Lucy Peacock, NCPS, BACP

Lucy Peacock is a counsellor who works in the United Kingdom. She is NCPS and BACP registered and has five years of professional experience. She supports adults with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and issues around self-esteem and relationships.

She uses an integrative approach and adapts conversations to each person’s needs. Sessions are shaped around what matters most to the individual, whether that is everyday coping, relationship challenges, parenting pressures or recovery after traumatic events. The therapist aims to be respectful and compassionate in every meeting.

Lucy combines several ways of working to suit different problems. That can include exploring past attachment patterns, using client-centred listening to prioritise the person’s view, and practical techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy to spot and change unhelpful thinking. She also draws on mindfulness and Jungian ideas when these fit the client’s goals.

Her background includes supporting people with perinatal and postnatal concerns, PTSD, personality-related difficulties and bereavement. She also helps with practical life changes such as career decisions and managing addiction-related issues. International clients may be supported and sessions are conducted in English.

Lucy describes the first steps as collaborative. She will work with each person to set realistic aims and agree how therapy will proceed. People looking to start are encouraged to use the site’s Start Therapy flow to make an initial match and schedule sessions.

How Lucy’s approaches work in online therapy

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they react a certain way in close relationships and supports healthier ways of connecting.

Client-centred therapy focuses on being heard. The counsellor follows the person’s lead, reflects what is shared and helps them find their own solutions to problems like grief, anxiety or life change.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, gives practical tools to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviours. It is often used for anxiety, depression and stress-related concerns and can produce short-term strategies to manage symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss options and decide collaboratively which methods suit the person’s goals, needs and preferences rather than imposing a single model.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when days are tight. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques to remote work so therapy remains focused on practical change and emotional support.
