Lucy McGroarty

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

Like so many of us, my life has certainly come with its ups and downs and I firmly believe all of us have the capacity to heal and overcome the challenges we face if we have the support around us that we need in order to grow and learn for the experiences we are faced with.

I am an Integrative Counsellor and the foundation of my training comes from a Person Centred, CBT and Psychodynamic approach. This enables me to draw on a number of different ways of working specifically to support you.

Talking therapy is my main focus but my training over the years has also taken to me explore alternative ways of working and after studying with the Institute of Arts, I have found the use of creativity, imagery and metaphor extremely beneficial for those who are not yet able to verbalise what is being felt.

Accessing counselling from the comfort of your own home can be hugely therapeutic and I always encourage cups of tea, a duvet or even a pet to help you through the session and the process as a whole.

For me, the most important part of counselling is the therapeutic relationship. I am non judgemental, open and understanding of your individual needs. Connection after all is what brings us together in all walks of life.

About

Lucy McGroarty has experienced her own share of life’s ups and downs and holds a strong belief that people have the capacity to heal and move forward when they have appropriate support to learn and grow from their experiences.

She is an Integrative Counsellor whose training is grounded in Person Centred, CBT and Psychodynamic approaches, which allows her to draw on a range of therapeutic methods tailored to each person’s needs. Lucy has ten years of experience working with people seeking change and support.

While talking therapy remains her primary focus, further study with the Institute of Arts has led her to incorporate creative tools such as imagery and metaphor. These approaches can be especially helpful for people who are not yet able to put their feelings into words.

Lucy welcomes clients to access counselling from the comfort of their own home and often encourages small comforts—a cup of tea, a warm duvet, or even a pet—to help people feel more at ease during sessions.

Above all, she places great importance on the therapeutic relationship, offering a non-judgemental, open and understanding presence. For Lucy, connection is central to the work of therapy and to helping people make meaningful change.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people question whether remote therapy can really help, and for a wide range of common concerns—including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and negotiating life changes—online therapy has been found to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional face-to-face sessions for most situations. A key advantage is the flexibility it offers. People can choose the mode of connection that suits them best, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. All therapists involved are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch therapists at any time if they seek a different fit. Online work can be a practical and effective route to support for many common mental health and life concerns.
