About Lucy
Pronouns: She/her/hers (what’s this?)
I completed my Masters in Counseling Psychology in 2018 from the Wright Institute in Berkeley and started practicing therapy with individuals and couples in the Bay Area. Much of my work has been informed by my own experiences in therapy. I strive to integrate clinical interventions that affirm diverse identities, open our emotions, and invite curiosity towards our inner world.
I focused my training on providing LGBTQIA+-affirming care, including gender spectrum medical advocacy while I became a sexual assault counselor (SAC) for the state of California. I worked with sexual assault survivors through advocacy in the legal system and trauma-focused therapy while training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) to support folks through providing couples therapy. I received sex therapy certification from the California Institute of Integral Studies in 2022 and am passionate about serving clients that have been systemically and erotically marginalized.
I use a warm approach by incorporating empathetic listening and authentic affirmative communication. I am gentle, focused, and honest, compassionately challenging at times. I incorporate consent around interventions, empowering clients to understand their agency moment to moment in our sessions and, by extension, in their own lives. Body-based awareness is a consistent part of my practice, as I believe that the mind-body connection is a powerful space for healing.
Some of my personal interests include dance, being in nature, travel, photography, writing, birds, caring for my dogs, teaching, and sexual justice.
Please reach out if you’d like to learn more about my practice. I look forward to speaking with you!

My clinical practice sits on the unceded ancestral homeland of the Chochenyo Ohlone peoples, who are the original inhabitants of Oakland and the San Francisco Bay Area. As a non-Indigenous person occupying this land, I pay Shuumi Land Tax as a small way to support Sogorea Te’ Land Trust and their work to rematriate this land.
