About Lucia
Lucia Stanfield is a Florida LMHC with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing depression, anxiety, relationship problems, addiction, trauma, parenting strain, grief, and other life stresses common in early adulthood.
Lucia uses several practical approaches to help people manage symptoms and make choices that fit their lives. She blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with cognitive behavioral strategies and attachment-informed work to address patterns that cause pain. Sessions focus on specific skills, clearer thinking, and steps a person can try between meetings.
People come to her for help with career uncertainty, trouble sleeping, anger or self-esteem issues, and questions around intimacy and identity. She also supports those coping with loss, chronic illness, caregiving stress, or adoption and attachment concerns. She works with clients who identify as LGBT and with those managing complex co-occurring problems.
Her style centers on straightforward conversation, identifying patterns, and practicing new responses. Lucia often uses mindfulness-based ACT ideas alongside DBT skills when emotional regulation is a core issue. She helps people notice what matters to them, set small goals, and test changes in daily life.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify what matters to them, and take small steps toward those values. ACT is often used for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going, using concrete exercises and homework to shift routines and reactions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns that began early and helps people understand how they affect current partnerships and intimacy.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will review goals and try methods that fit the person's needs and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change over time as goals and responses evolve.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people try approaches such as skill practice, behavioral experiments, and exposure tasks in their everyday context. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused techniques to work across distance while helping clients apply new skills between sessions.
