About

Dr Lucy Bassil is a HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist with a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology and a Master’s in Research in Clinical Psychology from the University of Birmingham. She works in both NHS adult community mental health settings and private practice, offering therapy to clients across the lifespan. Lucy has a particular interest in supporting individuals experiencing complex trauma, shame, self-criticism, and emotional regulation difficulties.
Her therapeutic approach is integrative and person-centred, drawing on Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), somatic-based therapy, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). She focuses on helping clients make sense of their story, understand what keeps them feeling stuck, and reconnect with their bodies where emotions and trauma may be held.
Lucy believes strongly in the healing potential of a safe, supportive therapeutic relationship and values human connection as central to meaningful change. Her work is paced to each individual's needs, offering warmth, openness, and collaboration throughout the therapeutic journey. She creates a space where clients feel seen not just for their struggles, but for their strengths and capacity to grow.

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
