About Judith

Judith Ramsay is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has eight years of practice. She supports people with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, career concerns and coping with life changes. She also works with issues relating to LGBT matters, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and a wide range of emotional and behavioural difficulties.

Judith uses practical, structured methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy alongside client-centred and solution-focused approaches. Sessions pay attention to thoughts, feelings and actions. She helps people notice unhelpful patterns and try small changes to see what helps in daily life.

Her work includes supporting carers and people living with long-term illness or chronic pain. She has experience with adult survivors of childhood abuse and with issues such as anger, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD and compassion fatigue. She aims to help people identify coping strategies and build on strengths they already have.

Judith’s meetings are straightforward and conversational. She listens to what matters most and checks practical steps each week. People can expect a mix of reflective discussion, goal-setting and simple exercises to practise between sessions.

Judith trained at Sunderland University and holds a BA (Hons) in Counselling. She works in the United Kingdom and runs sessions in English. International clients are also accepted, and she asks people to confirm session formats before booking.

How Judith uses CBT and related approaches online

Judith regularly draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns. CBT in practice means breaking problems into manageable pieces, testing out new behaviours and reviewing what helps over time. Client-Centred Therapy is also part of her approach and focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client, which can help clarify goals and next steps.

She views the choice of approach as a collaborative decision. Judith will talk through what you want to achieve, try different methods and check what feels most useful. The process is practical - setting clear goals, agreeing steps and reviewing progress together so the plan can be adjusted as needed.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits your schedule. It also means people in other locations can access therapy from a registered BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom. Discuss format and timing when you complete the short matching questionnaire so sessions match your needs and daily routine.
