She has completed Level 1 training in Internal Family Systems and is a member of the Embodied Recovery Institute, reflecting her holistic approach that honors the mind-body connection in healing.

Her practice embraces the full spectrum of her clients’ experiences, including recovery from gender violence, maternal mental health, intentional parenting, body justice, sex positivity, and trauma healing. Lucy integrates psychoeducation throughout her work, helping clients understand their experiences and develop tools for lasting change.

Known for her warm, collaborative approach, Lucy values the healing power of humor and authentic connection, believing that recovery often begins in the safety of the therapeutic relationship. She’s deeply creative and frequently incorporates expressive techniques to support transformation and healing in ways that feel natural and meaningful to each client.
