Reaching out for mental health support can feel like a big step, and Lucy knows that the experience surrounding your care matters too.
As a First Impressions Associate, she helps clients navigate the early parts of their experience with Healthy Minds Therapy while making sure they feel heard, welcomed, and supported along the way.
Lucy especially values creating an environment where people from all backgrounds and identities can feel comfortable being themselves.

Lucy works closely with the rest of the First Impressions Team to help keep the client experience organized, meaningful, and as smooth as possible.
Her thoughtful nature, strong work ethic, and genuine enjoyment of connecting with people make her a natural fit for a role centered around helping others feel at ease.
Her time at Healthy Minds has also helped inspire the next step in her own career. Lucy is currently pursuing a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.

Outside of Healthy Minds, Lucy loves audiobooks, crafting, tending to her plant collection, and finding a great cup of coffee.
Before joining the mental health world, she spent more than ten years working as a barista, so she’s also a pretty solid person to ask for your next Starbucks order.
She’s even been learning Chinese on Duolingo and is approaching a full year of daily practice.
