About Lucia
Lucia Fleet is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She sees people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, codependency and related concerns such as addiction, low self-esteem and grief. Lucia aims to work at each person’s pace and meet them where they are in the moment.
Lucia uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on listening and helping people make sense of patterns in their lives. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas and transactional analysis when these approaches suit the work. Sessions can be more analytical or more focused on feeling, depending on what a person needs.
In the early sessions she concentrates on getting to know the person, their history, and what they want to change. She invites clients to reflect on repeated behaviours - for example people-pleasing, difficulty saying no, or staying in roles that feel draining - and to explore alternatives. The aim is to notice what keeps those patterns going and to practise different ways of responding.
Lucia has experience supporting people affected by childhood trauma, gambling and sex-related addictive behaviours, ADHD, domestic abuse, depression and anxiety. She also has work experience in a gambling addiction service within the NHS. Her style blends listening with gentle challenge and reflection.
She asks people to use the opening sessions to check how they feel working together and to decide on next steps. Lucia works during UK daytime hours and often sees international clients at times that suit those time differences. If unsure about session arrangements, clients are encouraged to confirm options before booking.
How sessions work
Client-centred approaches and online working
Lucia uses client-centred counselling as a core approach. That means sessions focus on the person’s experience, with listening and reflection to help people understand their feelings and choices. This style can help with relationship patterns, low self-worth, and responses to stress and loss.She also draws on psychodynamic thinking and transactional analysis when those approaches feel helpful. Psychodynamic ideas look at how past experiences shape present reactions. Transactional analysis can help people understand communication patterns and choices in relationships.
Figuring out the right way of working is part of the process. Lucia will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then adapt the balance of listening, reflection and gentle challenge accordingly. That decision is collaborative and can change over time.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around daily life and can reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins where appropriate, and sessions that do not require being on camera for the whole time. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors and therapists, use different ways of working online to help people make changes while keeping therapy practical and manageable.
