About Lucia

Lucia Stanfield is a Florida licensed mental health counselor with 20 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by anger, anxiety, depression, or major life changes. She makes space for honest conversation and practical steps that fit each person's life.

She uses straightforward strategies to reduce intense emotions and improve daily coping. Sessions often include learning skills for managing stress, sharpening communication, and calming high-reactivity moments.

Background and approach

Lucia blends goal-focused techniques with attention to personal values and relationships. Her background includes long-term work with grief, addiction, trauma, and caregiving stress. That experience informs how she supports people facing chronic health issues, career strain, or problems with intimacy and self-esteem.

Clients get help sorting through patterns that repeat and building new routines that feel doable. Lucia draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Attachment-Based work, among other approaches. She uses tools from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and client-centered listening when they fit the situation.

The aim is to teach skills while also honoring each person's story and goals. Lucy believes therapy is a team effort. She helps people set clear, realistic targets and practices techniques in session that transfer to everyday life.

For those needing flexible access, she offers multiple online formats so therapy can fit into busy schedules.

Approaches Lucia lists

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist names and does not check training records.

How Lucia’s approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It often includes values clarification and simple actions that bring life more in line with what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments to change mood and behavior. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and anger that shows up in everyday routines. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and helps people understand how early bonds shape reactions and trust in the present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lucia will talk through options and try tools collaboratively until a good fit emerges. She tailors techniques to each person's goals and checks in regularly to adjust direction as progress unfolds.

Online care can make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls let people work face to face from different locations, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be simpler on busy days, and live chat or text-based messaging allow quick check-ins or ongoing written work between sessions. These options support flexible scheduling and different communication preferences, while still allowing skill practice and therapeutic conversation.
