About Lucia
Lucia Stanfield is a licensed mental health counselor with 20 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, relationship strain, or big life changes. Lucia aims to make therapy straightforward and practical so parents and busy adults can get usable tools fast.
She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through loss, trauma, stress, or struggles with attention and focus. Sessions focus on helping people understand their reactions and build clearer routines and coping steps.
Background and approach
Lucia emphasizes small, achievable changes that fit into everyday life. Her background covers mood disorders, grief, addiction, workplace stress, and intimacy-related concerns. She also works with people facing family conflict, caregiving strain, chronic illness, and issues around identity.
Her experience includes helping clients who are navigating ADHD-related challenges alongside other life demands. Lucia uses a mix of practical therapies to tailor care to each person. She draws on approaches that teach new skills, shift unhelpful thinking, and strengthen relationships.
The pace and focus are chosen together with the client so therapy stays relevant and doable. Clients can expect clear goals, coping strategies they can try between sessions, and steady attention to what matters most to them. Lucia practices in Florida and has experience supporting people through long-term change and sudden crises.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and motivation struggles by encouraging small, values-based steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and building concrete skills for mood, sleep, and focus problems. It often involves short exercises and homework to practice between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lucia will collaborate with each client to select methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That way sessions stay relevant and can shift if a different focus would help more.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people have a fuller conversation and use visual cues, while phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, step-by-step coaching, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and practice skills between appointments.
