About Jenny
BACP accredited counsellor with five years' experience, working in the United Kingdom and with international clients. Jenny Rudd focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and life changes. She also supports people facing grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strains, workplace pressure and LGBTQ concerns.
Jenny uses everyday conversation, gentle challenge and practical skills in sessions. She listens and helps people to name unhelpful thoughts. She works on building confidence, identifying values and setting realistic goals. She teaches coping strategies and breathing or grounding techniques where these are useful.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and client-centred counselling. That mix means sessions can include noticing thoughts, exploring attachment patterns, problem-solving and practising new ways of behaving.
Jenny has specialised experience in relationship and bereavement work and in supporting people with gender and sexual relationship diversity. She has supported people dealing with the death of a partner, friend or family member and with the knock-on changes these losses bring.

Therapeutic approaches used in remote counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values rather than getting stuck in avoidance. It can help with anxiety, low mood and finding purpose. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical techniques for changing unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can be useful for people dealing with relationship difficulties, attachment issues or repeated patterns of conflict.Working out which approach fits best is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable. That collaborative decision means methods can be adjusted as therapy progresses so practical skills and reflection sit alongside each other.
The biography indicates sessions have been offered online and by telephone, but readers should confirm the current session options before booking. Remote counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time and choose quieter surroundings. Telephone sessions remove the need to be on camera, while online video lets people use visual cues during the conversation. Registered or accredited professionals can explain which format is most suitable at the first appointment.
