Background and approach

Somatic methods help people notice how tension and emotion show up in the body. Judi pairs that with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-focused ideas to help people understand patterns and experiment with new ways of responding. Sessions aim to be collaborative.

The counsellor listens, helps name what feels difficult and suggests simple exercises you can try between meetings. Sometimes that will be breathing or grounding exercises, other times it will be short behavioural experiments or values-based goals. Judi holds NCPS as a recorded credential and has practised for many years in the United Kingdom.

She works in English and accepts international clients when arrangements suit both parties. Therapy is offered through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. Sessions may take place by video, phone, live chat or text messaging depending on preference and need.

To begin, a short questionnaire and scheduling step links you with the counsellor.

How somatic work and talking therapies fit online

Somatic-informed work focuses on noticing sensations in the body and how they link with thoughts and feelings. It often uses simple movement, breath or grounding exercises to help reduce tension and build awareness, and can be useful for anxiety, trauma responses and stress-related symptoms.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what really matters to them and to take small steps in that direction. It combines mindful awareness with practical behavioural steps and can help with depression, anxiety and life transitions.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions. It helps people spot repeated patterns in relationships and practise new ways of connecting and communicating.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then try methods together to see what helps. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are made over time.

Online therapy makes these approaches accessible from home. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and guided exercises, while phone, live chat or text messaging offer more flexible check-ins and ongoing support. These options can fit different schedules and comfort levels, making therapy easier to maintain alongside daily life.
