Lucy Peters, NCPS

Lucy Peters is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stressful thoughts and habits. She works with adults on common concerns like anxiety, low mood, sleep problems, and self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with grief, relationship difficulties, parenting strain, anger, and the practical impacts of ADHD.

Lucy creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them. She invites straightforward conversations about everyday thinking patterns and routines that get in the way. The aim is to notice habits, try small changes, and build ways of coping that feel sustainable.

Lucy holds NCPS and brings around 10 years of experience working in clinical settings. Her background includes supporting people after trauma and abuse, and helping those facing phobias, hoarding behaviours, or hearing impairment related concerns. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to focus on thinking and daily routines.

Sessions tend to be practical and collaborative. Lucy often helps people spot unhelpful thought patterns, set realistic goals, and test different approaches between meetings. She encourages clear steps a person can take between sessions to help them practise new habits.

If you are looking for a counsellor who pays attention to thoughts and everyday habits, Lucy aims to work alongside you to find what helps, at a pace that suits your life.

How evidence-based techniques can work online

Lucy uses recognised, evidence-based techniques that focus on thinking and daily routines. One approach helps people identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts, learning to test those beliefs in everyday situations to reduce anxiety and low mood. Another approach concentrates on habits and routines - spotting small behaviours to change and building simple steps that improve sleeping, eating or daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lucy treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss which techniques feel most useful for a person’s goals and preferences. Together you decide what to try, review what helps, and adjust plans as therapy progresses.

The practical benefits of working online include fitting sessions around busy lives and reducing travel time. If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Many people find online sessions easier to schedule, better for quick check-ins, and helpful when they want to work on thought patterns and daily habits without rearranging their whole day.
