Dr. Lucy Flitton, BACP, NCPS

Dr Lucy Flitton is a UK-based psychotherapist and psychologist with 17 years of clinical experience, offering an integrative, trauma-informed practice that supports people through anxiety, low mood, relationship patterns, life transitions, grief, and stress. She works with adults, adolescents, and children, tailoring interventions to each person’s presenting story while maintaining a client-centered stance that prioritises the individual’s values and goals.

Her training includes complex trauma, integrative and somatic psychotherapy, and she uses body-focused methods to help clients notice how emotions appear physically. She also draws on Internal Family Systems ideas to explore conflicting parts of the self, and she integrates existential and positive psychology principles to foster post-traumatic growth, renewed purpose, and stronger relationships. Across her work she weaves perspectives from developmental psychology, neuropsychology, and health psychology to consider both individual life-course factors and broader societal influences.

Dr Flitton is additionally trained as an NLP Master practitioner and attends to how language shapes experience and relationship dynamics. She offers a wide toolkit for difficulties including trauma-related symptoms, stress and anxiety, addictions and co-occurring problems, relationship struggles, and sleep disruption. People who work with her commonly report feeling lighter, more grounded, and better able to manage overwhelming emotions, set boundaries, and reconnect with hope and agency.

She holds professional counselling and psychotherapy credentials - BACP and NCPS - and publishes articles on ACCPH, Substack, Medium, and her private practice website. She aims to reply to enquiries within 24 hours between 8.30 am and 7.30 pm Monday to Friday and welcomes contact to discuss possible therapeutic work.

Integrative approaches delivered effectively online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and learn practical ways to move toward those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related difficulties. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early connections shape current bonds - it can help with relationship conflicts, intimacy issues, and difficulties rooted in attachment experiences.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Dr. Flitton collaborates with each person to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses so that the work remains relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to access licensed professionals, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family, and other commitments, and they allow people to receive consistent support from wherever they are while still working with experienced therapists.
