Building a rapport with a therapist that is full of trust and confidence is life changing and that's what I look forward to with clients who work with me. Your internal healing process is sparked off by talking through what it is that is distressing you. Therapy sessions give you the opportunity to express in depth how you're feeling and describe what you've been through and are going through now. The process of doing this brings insight and understanding as well as a huge sense of relief. Feelings of stuckness ease off as you find ways of coming through the difficulties. Through this process, your relationship with yourself develops which causes evolution in your life journey. Here are some of the things that have come up in my work with people: conflicts in relationships and in families, remembering trauma from the past, panic attacks, self hatred, fertility issues, sexual abuse, feeling overwhelmed and hopeless, depression, grief and loneliness. Therapy has been part of my clients' journeys through these things and others to a sense of transformation. Here's my website if you'd like to take a look--www.brightcircletherapy.co.uk

I am happy with Lucy as my therapist

She's been nothing but help and a great source of insight into my own struggles. An understanding and very open person who, despite having a client like me, someone very distrusting of therapy at first, has shown patience and compassion where others had not. I would recommend her to anyone who is new to therapy and is looking for more open-ended discussion towards their worldly views.
