Lucy Goode

I am a registered Clinical Psychologist with 19 years experience working in private, clinical, and educational settings. I have been working within my own private practice for 12 years, and enjoy the freedom this allows me to balance my working life, role as a mother, and occasional artist.

​

I am most passionate about deeper trauma-focussed work with adults, however see clients from 8 years to older adulthood. I am creative and therefore tend to adapt my therapeutic approach to each client's age, stage, and preferences. I understand how important it is to find the right client-therapist click.

​

I have been trained in a broad range of therapies but find combinations of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Emotion Focussed Therapy, ACT, Schema Therapy, and Hypnotherapy to be particularly effective.

 

My clients often seek support for anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment issues, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, stress management, self-esteem, adjustment, coping with change, academic/study and school difficulties, and stage-of-life challenges, like transition to adulthood, confidence, assertiveness, communication skills, parenting stress, career change, burnout, dating and relationship issues, and finding overall balance and wellbeing.

​

I am an AHPRA Board Approved Supervisor and am available for occasional and ongoing professional supervision.

​

Sessions are available In-person for those on the Geelong, Bellarine, and Surf Coast areas, and of course via Telehealth/Zoom.
