I had a truly great experience working with Lucy. She is kind, empathetic, and an exceptional listener. What stood out most to me was how she paid attention not only to the words I was saying, but also to the emotions behind them.
She helped me stay grounded and centered through a very difficult time in my life. With her guidance, I was able to better understand my situation and find the words to express what I was going through—something I had struggled with before.
I feel incredibly grateful and blessed to have had her support during such an important time in my life. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and insightful therapist.

Lucy has become a rock for me over the past year, plain and simple. The way she communicates, educates, supports and listens is beyond what I thought therapy could be, I am truly changed for the better. I look forward to our sessions as we can be as fun or vulnerable as ever in such a safe and free place. Thank you Lucy and thank you betterhelp for having her.

Lucy seems to know what going on just talk with her clearly and she'll give you some things to help you with your problems granted she gives you tools but you have to be willing to try them and remember to use them which most of us might not remember to use them but shes good.
