Lucy Walker

My practice is rooted in evidence‑based approaches, particularly Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). These models shape the way I help people understand their emotional world, their patterns, and the challenges they’re facing.

Over the years, I’ve worked across a range of clinical settings, supporting individuals facing depression, eating disorders, anxiety disorders, relationship difficulties, trauma, life transitions, and the quieter struggles that don’t always have a name. My experience spans both research and practice, and I’m committed to integrating evidence‑based approaches with a compassionate, down‑to‑earth style.

People often tell me they appreciate my calm, approachable manner and the way I balance empathy with gentle honesty. I see therapy as a partnership, one where we work together at a pace that feels right for you, exploring what’s difficult while also recognising your strengths, resilience, and capacity for growth.

If you’re considering therapy, I’d be glad to talk through what you’re looking for and help you get a sense of whether we might be a good fit.
