Jenny Rudd, BACP

Jenny Rudd is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and intimacy-related issues. She also supports those facing grief, trauma, self-esteem struggles, LGBT concerns and life transitions. Jenny aims to make the first steps easier and offers a calm, non-judgemental space to start talking about what feels overwhelming.

She listens and reflects rather than rushing to fix things. Sessions focus on exploring thoughts and feelings, challenging unhelpful beliefs, and learning practical coping strategies. Jenny works with clients to identify values and build confidence so small changes add up to clearer direction.

Her approach draws on several recognised methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, client-centred practice, cognitive behavioural techniques and elements of dialectical behaviour therapy. She adapts these methods to each person so the work fits their goals and situation.

Jenny has five years of counselling experience and holds BACP registration, which means she meets the standards set out by that professional body. She has worked with people in the UK and internationally, and has particular experience with bereavement and LGBT relationship and identity concerns.

In online or telephone sessions she offers flexible support for people who need to fit counselling around work or travel. If someone wants a tailored programme, she aims to create a plan that reflects the person’s needs and pace.

To begin, clients are asked to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a session according to availability.

How her approaches fit into online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often useful for anxiety, low mood and feeling stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotions, and can help with intimacy-related issues and patterns of closeness or distance.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jenny will discuss options and decide together which methods feel most helpful for a person’s goals, adjusting the plan as progress is made. The process is collaborative and paced to the individual’s needs.

The biography references online and telephone counselling and international work, so confirm which formats are currently offered before booking. Online or telephone sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, allow someone to join while travelling, or offer a shorter check-in when time is limited. Registered or accredited professionals can use these options to keep therapy practical and consistent with everyday routines.
