About Lucie
Lucie Knapp is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina who helps people facing anger, stress, anxiety, grief, and changes in life. She focuses on practical steps and clear questions to help people understand what's driving their behavior. Lucie writes in a warm, direct way and aims to make the first steps feel doable.
She draws on 21 years of experience in behavioral work, coaching, and clinical social work.
Background and approach
Her background includes work at a university diet and fitness center where she supported behavior change around eating and weight maintenance. That work shaped her interest in how emotions and life events influence habits and choices. In sessions she combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral tools and acceptance strategies.
She uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness techniques when they fit the person's goals. Lucie also brings a coaching mindset, turning insight into concrete plans and actions. Her approach is conversational and interactive.
She asks focused questions to help people peel back layers and identify patterns. From there she and the person build realistic steps to test and change unhelpful habits. Lucie also uses psychodrama techniques in some situations to help people practice and rehearse new responses.
She works with concerns that include relationships, body image and eating issues, parenting stress, career questions, and questions around identity and self-worth. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

How her approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying what matters most to them. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions because it focuses on values and small committed actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to test and change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anger, depression, sleeping problems, and eating-related habits. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness, which can support emotional regulation and coping with strong feelings.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals and preferences, try methods that fit those aims, and adjust as needed. Decisions about which skills to use are made together so the plan stays realistic and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skill practice, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, chat can be used for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options aim to make consistent care more flexible and accessible for different schedules and needs.
