Bio

Lucy Strand is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience helping women and teens move beyond the patterns that keep them stuck. She specializes in EMDR therapy for anxiety, trauma, and healing the long-standing beliefs that shape how we experience ourselves and our relationships.

Her approach blends talk therapy with EMDR and structured, goal-oriented support — addressing thoughts, the nervous system, body, and emotional layers together. Lucy is warm and supportive, and will also challenge you when growth requires it.

“You don’t need more insight. You want relief.”

Lucy came to EMDR through her own personal work and experienced firsthand how it creates real nervous system change — not just intellectual understanding. Most of her clients notice gradual relief of symptoms within the first month or two. She works with high-achieving, self-aware women across California via telehealth, Monday through Thursday, 9 AM to 4 PM.
