About Lucia
Lucia Stanfield is a Florida-based licensed mental health counselor with 20 years of experience supporting people through hard moments. She focuses on clear, practical help for depression, anxiety, relationship trouble, stress, and the aftermath of trauma. Lucia aims to create a calm, non-judgmental space so someone can talk through what feels overwhelming and start making small changes.
She uses approaches that help clients build skills and understanding. That can mean learning ways to manage intense feelings, improving communication, or finding new routines to improve sleep and reduce worry.
Background and approach
Lucia also addresses concerns around addiction, grief, identity, and career strain. Her background includes long-term clinical work helping people navigate family-related stress, parenting challenges, and living with chronic health or caregiving demands. She brings practical methods alongside listening, so sessions balance reflection with usable steps to try between meetings.
Lucia incorporates therapy ideas such as cognitive behavioral techniques, attachment-focused work, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to tailor plans to each person. She respects individual values and life circumstances when suggesting strategies. People who reach out can expect a collaborative process that starts with clear goals and moves toward steady progress.
Lucia helps clients notice patterns, practice new responses, and build resilience for both everyday strains and larger life transitions.

Online support
Howtherapy approaches translate to online care
Lucia draws on the Gottman Method ideas to support healthier communication and problem-solving in relationships, using simple exercises to practice new ways of talking and listening. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify what truly matters and take small actions aligned with their values while accepting difficult feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connection patterns affect current relationships and helps people try different, more supported ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Lucia meets each person where they are, discusses goals, and selects or blends methods that fit personal history and needs. She checks in as work progresses and adjusts the plan based on what helps most in real life.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets people work face-to-face from wherever they are, phone sessions can fit into a short break, live chat supports quicker check-ins, and text messaging helps keep continuity between sessions. These formats make it easier to maintain momentum and practice new skills without long travel times.
