Lucy supports individuals with chronic health conditions and autoimmune diseases to better understand how unconscious psychological patterns and behaviours can influence health and illness. Lucy uses a whole-body holistic approach; some areas of focus include the relationship between trauma & illness, stress & coping, chronic illness management, self-love & compassion, and exploring the bodies wisdom and messages.
“The secret of good health lies in successful adjustment to changing stresses on the body.”
