About Lucia
Lucia Stanfield is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 20 years of experience helping people facing career pressures, relationship strain, anxiety, and major life changes. She focuses on clear, practical support so clients can feel steadier and more able to make decisions that fit their lives.
Clients find a calm, nonjudgmental space to talk through depression, grief, trauma, and identity concerns. Sessions emphasize learning skills and building daily routines that reduce stress and improve sleep. Lucia aims to strengthen a person’s sense of self and help them reconnect to what matters most.
Her work combines several clinical approaches to match each person’s needs. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking, acceptance-based practices to clarify values, and attachment-informed ideas to improve close relationships. Treatment plans are adjusted over time based on what’s working.
Lucia also addresses complex or overlapping issues like addiction, ADHD, chronic illness, caregiving stress, and co-occurring mood concerns. She helps people untangle patterns such as codependency, avoidance, or communication problems so they can take clearer steps forward.
She welcomes conversations about career stress and finding purpose at work, and she supports parents and caregivers managing competing demands. The goal is practical change: better coping, healthier boundaries, and clearer choices about the next steps in life.

Approaches that guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, commonly called ACT, helps people clarify what matters and take small, meaningful actions that match their values even when feelings are difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and routines to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect present-day connections and helps people build healthier ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with clients to choose methods that match their goals, personality, and life demands. Together they will try strategies, see what helps, and adjust the plan over time so it fits real life.
