Dr. Lucy Flitton is a licensed, certified Complex Trauma Integrative and Somatic psychotherapist and psychologist practising in the United Kingdom with 17 years of professional experience.
She works with adults, adolescents and children, adapting therapeutic methods to each person’s presenting story while maintaining a person-centred framework. Her clinical training includes women’s health issues, the Polyvagal model and somatic approaches that explore how emotions appear in the body, as well as Internal Family Systems to attend to conflicting internal parts.
Dr. Flitton also draws on Existential principles to support healing and post-traumatic growth, and she aligns those ideas with Positive Psychology to help clients discover renewed purpose or strengthened relationships. Her practice integrates elements of Developmental Psychology, Neuropsychology and Health Psychology, and she takes a life course approach to consider personal struggles alongside broader social factors.
Her wide range of clinical tools is used to support people with trauma-related difficulties such as stress and anxiety, addictions and co-occurring problems, relationship challenges and sleep struggles. As an NLP Master practitioner, she also examines how clients’ language shapes their experience and relationship dynamics.
Prospective clients can contact Dr. Flitton directly through the platform; she aims to respond within 24 hours of receipt between 8.30 am and 7.30 pm, Monday to Friday. Her writing appears on the ACCPH and Medium websites, as well as on her private practice website.
Many people ask whether online therapy can make a meaningful difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or navigating life changes, evidence shows that online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person work for most cases.
A major benefit is flexibility - clients can choose the format that best fits their needs, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it simpler to incorporate therapy into a busy life.
Each therapist involved is a licensed professional, and clients are free to change therapists if they need a different fit. For many people, online therapy provides an accessible, practical way to get regular support while working toward their goals.
