Lucia Lock
Experienced UK counsellor for trauma and mood concerns
About Lucia
Lucia Lock is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 12 years of experience. She holds BACP registration, which means she meets the professional standards set out by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Lucia offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk through difficult moments.
She supports people facing stress, anxiety and depression, and those coping with trauma, abuse and addictions. She also helps with self-esteem, grief, mood conditions such as bipolar, and challenges around identity including LGBT concerns.
Background and approach
Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, communication problems, caregiver strain and loneliness. Lucia draws on client-centred and psychodynamic approaches to shape sessions. She aims to match her way of working to what each person needs, using listening, reflection and gentle challenge to help people understand patterns that keep them stuck.
The work is conversational and paced to suit the individual. Sessions can look at immediate coping strategies and practical steps, and they can also explore past experiences that influence current feelings and relationships. Lucia places emphasis on building trust and on clear, collaborative planning for each person’s goals.
She provides online sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. To start, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions according to the platform process and therapist availability.

How client-centred and psychodynamic work adapts to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people find their own solutions through empathic reflection. It suits people who want a supportive space to talk through stress, identity questions or relationship concerns.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past experiences and repeating patterns influence current feelings and behaviour. It can help when recurrent difficulties, attachment issues or unresolved pain keep affecting day-to-day life.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lucia will work collaboratively to decide whether to emphasise client-centred support, psychodynamic insight, or a mix. The plan is shaped around each person’s goals, pace and preferences rather than a fixed formula.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different needs. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are practical for brief check-ins, reflective writing and fitting therapy into a busy day. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity when life is busy or travel is difficult, while still enabling regular therapeutic work with registered or accredited professionals.
