About Lucinda

Lucinda Slavin is a counsellor who uses a Person Centred approach to help people facing stress, grief, anxiety and trauma. She is a BACP member and has eight years working as a counsellor. Her style is calm and steady, and she aims to help people find their own answers at their own pace.

She offers a way of working that focuses on the person rather than a diagnosis. Sessions look at the issues you bring, such as relationship strain, parenting pressures, low self-esteem or difficulties after loss.

Background and approach

Lucinda listens without judgement and encourages small steps towards feeling more confident and in control. Before becoming a counsellor she spent many years in the wider mental health sector. That background informs how she holds difficult moments and stays alongside someone through painful feelings.

She is comfortable with silence and with gently challenging unhelpful patterns when it feels right. Lucinda works with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar difficulties, compassion fatigue, ADHD, anger and chronic illness challenges. She also supports people with attachment and abandonment worries, communication problems and the fallout from separation or domestic violence.

Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. She works from the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time to meet with her.

Ways of working Lucinda names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Person Centred therapy online and what it offers

Person Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of the work. The therapist listens closely, offers empathy and reflects what you say so you can hear your own thinking more clearly. This approach is useful for issues like stress, anxiety, grief, trauma and relationship difficulties because it helps people reconnect with their own strengths and choices.

That same person-focused way of working transfers well to online sessions. Lucinda uses the approach to help you identify goals and test small changes, working together to find what best suits your needs. The process is collaborative - she will check in about what is helping and adjust the style based on your preferences and progress.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for a simpler check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, people who prefer to write, or times when typing fits better into a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments while keeping the focus on steady, person-led progress.
