About Lucy

Lucy Peters is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, sleep problems and relationship strains. She speaks plain language and aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable. Lucy holds an NCPS credential and brings ten years of experience to her work.

She focuses on clear, practical conversations about what is worrying people now. Sessions often include gently working through upsetting memories, sorting out family tensions, and building simple routines that help with sleep and daily functioning. Lucy pays attention to how life changes, grief and parenting pressures affect day-to-day wellbeing.

Her style is calm and straightforward. She aims to create a non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be talked through without pressure. The emphasis is on what can be tried between sessions, not only on talking.

Lucy has supported people with anger, intimacy issues, eating concerns, ADHD and phobias, and also offers help to those who are hearing impaired or struggling with hoarding. She works with people across the LGBT community and those coping with trauma and abuse.

Based in New Hampshire, she combines practical strategies with steady listening to help people cope with life changes and rebuild better sleep patterns. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps connect someone to her practice and then sessions are scheduled according to availability.

How evidence-based methods translate to online work

Lucy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions in a practical way. One approach focuses on building routines and behavioural experiments to improve sleep and reduce anxiety by changing daily habits and testing small adjustments. Another approach concentrates on trauma-informed conversations that help people make sense of distressing events and reduce their impact on current life. Both approaches use simple steps you can try between sessions to see what helps.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, current struggles and preferences, and then suggest ways forward. Together they try methods for a few sessions and adjust based on what feels useful and manageable.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session options before booking since formats are not detailed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around family life, work breaks or travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or reduce the need to travel for appointments. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, often use these flexible arrangements to help therapy fit everyday routines.
