About Lucia
Lucia Stanfield is a Florida LMHC with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are trying to manage anger, stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship problems. She also helps people facing addiction, grief, sleep issues, and challenges tied to identity and life changes.
She keeps sessions practical and direct. Conversations focus on what is happening now, what patterns keep repeating, and small changes that reduce reactive behaviors. Lucia uses tools from cognitive behavioral approaches and skills-based work to help people notice triggers and try different responses.
Her practice draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas to make sense of emotional patterns. That can mean learning to tolerate difficult feelings without acting on them, and tracing how past relationships shape present reactions. Client-centered methods shape how sessions are run, with the person's concerns guiding the pace and focus.
Lucia has two decades of experience supporting people with complex challenges like bipolar disorder, trauma, caregiving stress, and ADHD. She also addresses issues such as body image, chronic illness, blended family dynamics, and workplace strain. Her background makes her comfortable talking through both immediate crises and long-standing patterns.
Practical skills and steady problem-solving are common in her sessions. People who want concrete ways to handle anger, rebuild important relationships, or manage emotion-driven choices often look to her for a straightforward working relationship. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and still take actions that match their values. It is useful for anger that comes from shame, avoidance, or stuck thinking. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete strategies to interrupt reactive patterns. CBT is often used for anger tied to workplace stress, anxiety, or depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day demands. That collaborative decision can shift as progress is made or as new issues appear.
Confirm the exact online session options before booking because formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone continue with consistent support while managing caregiving duties, work shifts, or travel. Licensed professionals adapt exercises and practice tasks to the online setting so sessions remain practical and relevant.
