Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Support
Lucy Ball uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. These approaches help clients identify unhelpful patterns, develop practical coping skills and work toward clearer, achievable goals - useful for issues such as anxiety, low mood, stress and difficulties with motivation.She also applies trauma-informed methods designed to sensitively address the impact of past abuse or distressing experiences, helping people process difficult memories and build resilience and safety in daily life. For concerns like relationship problems, addiction or self-esteem, she integrates coaching-style strategies to strengthen skills, communication and self-management.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lucy collaborates with each person to clarify needs, preferences and goals, and adjusts techniques so the work feels like a good fit. Registered professionals and therapists often combine methods in this way to match the client rather than forcing a single model.
Online therapy with Lucy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, continue work during life transitions, and maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not practical.
