Lucy Peacock

Lucy Peacock is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She holds NCPS and BACP registrations and has five years of direct practice experience. She supports adults with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, trauma and grief, as well as relationship and parenting strains.

She works in a person-focused way and adapts sessions to each person’s needs. Conversations are practical and straightforward. She aims to help people understand patterns, make changes, and build coping skills that fit everyday life.

Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred practice and cognitive behavioural techniques. She also uses elements of Jungian thought and mindfulness where these suit a person’s situation. These methods guide how she helps people untangle issues such as abandonment, attachment problems, dissociation and codependency.

Lucy has supported people through life transitions, bereavement, addictions and mood concerns including bipolar. She also addresses communication problems, blended family and caregiver stress, and the fallout from natural or human-caused disaster. Her work includes practical coaching around career and self-esteem as well as therapeutic conversation.

She invites people to set goals and shape the pace of therapy together. The initial steps focus on listening and building trust, then identifying what to work on next. Clients can expect clear, respectful dialogue and a collaborative plan that reflects their priorities.

How attachment, person-centred and CBT approaches fit online therapy

Attachment-based work looks at the ways early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can be a space to notice how you relate to others and practise different responses. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and following what matters most to the person. This helps people feel heard and to set goals that suit their life. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful cycles.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then try methods that fit each person. This is a collaborative process where plans are reviewed and adjusted as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to schedule therapy around busy days, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports people who live abroad, since international clients are accepted, but practical arrangements should be checked in advance to make sure they match the client's needs.
