Hi, I’m Lucy. I’m an integrative counsellor based in Kent. I work with adults (17+) many of whom feel emotionally stretched, overwhelmed or stuck in patterns of anxiety, self-doubt or burn out. I am experienced in a variety of difficulties such as anxiety, PTSD, depression, childhood trauma & abuse. Many of the clients I work with are carrying a lot: caring for others, managing work & family life, or trying to make sense of long standing emotional difficulties. I offer a calm, reflective space where we can slow things down, make sense of what’s happening and find a way to move forward in a way that feels more manageable and grounded
I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the most important facet to our work together. As a counsellor, I am completely separate from your personal life and as such I offer an atmosphere of non-judgmental empathy. I won’t give you advice, tell you what to do or give you my opinion because I believe that, ultimately, you are the expert on you.
Although I specialise in trauma, I am trauma-informed, not trauma-exclusive. This means that I can draw upon various modalities and techniques to meet your needs. I offer affordable face-to-face counselling in Ashford, Kent and online sessions as well. If you’re ready to walk a different path, please get in touch and I will walk with you.
Call or Lucy Lapish now for a free 15 minute consultation - 01233 560472

When working with trauma the first thing I do is establish safety with you; a way to keep you regulated and to bring you back into the here and now. Trauma can have a way of catapulting us back in the past and the first goal is keep you in the present. Once you can recognise and draw on your resilience we will move at your own pace, in a collaborative way, to begin to shine a light on the darkness
