About me
Hi, I’m Lucy Sedgwick.
I’m a person-centred counsellor with a deep curiosity about the human brain and why we do the things we do. My work is grounded in warmth, acceptance and genuine human connection.
I have extensive experience working with neurodivergence, and I’m passionate about creating a therapeutic space where difference is understood, respected and celebrated. I believe people make sense when you listen closely enough, and that feeling truly seen can be profoundly healing.
I’m a feminist, endlessly curious, and proudly embrace my ADHD. I bring my whole self into the room — thoughtful, open, and real — because I believe therapy works best when you don’t have to mask or perform.
At the heart of my practice is a belief that you are the expert in your own experience. My role is to walk alongside you, offering understanding, compassion and space to explore whatever you bring.

My approach is grounded in person-centred therapy, but I draw on a range of integrated methods to tailor your therapy to you as an individual.
I am a former teacher, working predominantly in primary schools and special needs settings. Combining my teaching experience, knowledge of neurodivergence (and a whole host of other special needs) and lived experience has led to a highly personalised, creative and authentic approach to counselling.

Areas of counselling I deal with
Other areas of counselling I deal with
I work with the person and not the 'disorder'. All diagnoses can be helpful to find support and understanding, but my work is focused on how this impacts you as a person and not on the box that labels can often create.
