About Lucia

Lucia Lock is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 12 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, and anger. She also supports clients dealing with depression, bipolar, ADHD and issues around self-esteem and grief.

Lucia takes a straightforward, trauma-informed approach. Sessions focus on practical conversation and understanding how past experiences shape present reactions. She aims to help people notice patterns, reduce impulsive responses, and build more calm ways to handle frustration.

Her day-to-day work draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy. That means time is given to what a person says in the moment, and to how earlier relationships and events might be influencing current feelings and behaviour. Lucia balances listening with gentle reflection and focused questions.

She pays attention to problems that often sit alongside anger, such as shame, guilt, codependency, isolation and difficulties with communication. Lucia also supports people working through caregiving strain, midlife change, loss, and struggles with substance misuse.

Practical next steps are simple. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session. Fee levels vary by location and sessions are provided through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what a person brings into the room. It helps people feel heard and supports clearer self-expression, which can be useful when addressing anger, shame or low self-esteem.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how earlier relationships and events influence present behaviour. This approach can help identify recurring triggers for anger and the emotional patterns that keep those reactions going.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences and practical needs and then suggest which methods to focus on. That choice is made collaboratively rather than imposed.

Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, cut travel time, or allow for shorter check-ins when days are tight. Registered or accredited professionals often use online work to keep continuity of care and to support people through life changes without requiring long commutes.
