Lucy Rooney
Practical therapy for relationships and trauma
About Lucy
Lucy Rooney is a counsellor who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to support people facing relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, career pressures and depression. She works with sensitivity and aims to make therapy practical and approachable. Lucy encourages small steps and acknowledges how hard it can be to begin.
With three years of experience she focuses on tailoring conversations and plans to each person’s situation. Sessions are shaped around what matters to the client, whether that is recovering from loss, managing low mood, or navigating work stress.
Background and approach
She also helps people who are struggling with intimacy, sleep problems, addiction concerns and self-esteem. Lucy has additional experience addressing attachment issues, communication problems and feelings of guilt or shame. She supports people coping with major life changes, separation, or cancer-related challenges.
Her approach includes attention to how past experiences affect present relationships and choices. Her listed credential is NCPS, which she uses as part of her professional identity. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients, working with people across different locations in the United Kingdom.
Therapy is delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. The subscription model used for sessions can be cancelled at any time. To begin, users follow the site process to be matched and then schedule appointments according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches and flexible online care
Lucy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful patterns in thinking and behaviour and then practise new ways of responding; this can be useful for depression, anxiety and low self-esteem. Another approach explores how past experiences shape current relationships and feelings, which can help with trauma, attachment concerns and intimacy problems.Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each person and try different approaches when needed. Decisions are collaborative and based on the client's goals, preferences and the issues they bring to sessions.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to make sessions easier to fit into daily life. Video lets people use visual cues during deeper conversations. Phone can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits a break at work. Chat and messaging suit quick updates or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options aim to increase flexibility and make regular therapy more practical for different routines and needs.
