ABOUT ME

Dr Lucy
Clinical Psychologist

Hello! I’m Dr Lucy, a HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist based in West Yorkshire, offering individual therapy as well as specialist assessments, family sessions and group work.

 

As a senior clinical psychologist, I have over a decade of experience in working with people experiencing difficulties with their psychological wellbeing. I have worked with people of all ages in NHS, private, and third-sector services. 

​I firmly believe in the importance of collaboration and tailoring therapy to each individual's unique needs. Whatever difficulties you are facing, I am here to work alongside you to move in the direction of a more rewarding life.

MY Therapeutic APPROACH

As a clinical psychologist, my goal is to help people lead rewarding and fulfilling lives. I believe it is important for individuals to understand and make sense of their life experiences. Through compassionate and evidence-based approaches, I strive to provide a safe and supportive environment for my clients, empowering them to navigate the challenges they face and discover a fulfilling future. I use a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches including:​​
 

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT);

  • Compassion Focussed Therapy (CFT);

  • Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR);

  • Systemic Family Therapy;

  • Narrative Therapy;

  • Attachment Focussed Therapy;

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).

 
Building a safe and trusting relationship with a therapist is the most important factor in therapy success, I therefore offer a free 15-minute conversation to allow you to get to know me and decide if I am the right person for you to work with.
