About Lucia

Lucia Stanfield is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 20 years of clinical practice, supporting people facing a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges.

Background and approach

She works with clients who are coping with issues such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, and stress. Her practice also includes work around addictions, bipolar disorder, sleep disturbance, self-esteem, and career-related strain.

Her style blends compassion with practical, evidence-informed strategies. Lucia creates a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where clients explore identity, attachment patterns, and life transitions while learning skills to manage intense feelings and improve daily functioning.

She draws from therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and attachment-based and client-centered approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs. Clients can expect collaborative goal-setting and interventions that honor personal values and cultural context.

Lucia aims to help people build resilience, clarify priorities, and develop sustainable coping approaches so they can move forward with greater emotional balance and clearer direction.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Lucia frequently integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy into online work. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress and improve functioning, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and many daily challenges. ACT emphasizes clarifying values and building psychological flexibility through mindfulness and committed action, helping clients navigate life changes and persistent internal struggles.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and happens collaboratively. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the presenting concerns to decide which methods to emphasize, and adjustments are made over time to ensure the work fits the client's needs.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to maximize flexibility and access. These formats allow continuity of care for people with busy schedules or those living outside the local area, and they make it possible to use skills-based practices and behavioral experiments together in ways that suit each client.
