Judith Hearne, BACP

About Judith

Judith Hearne is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, eating concerns, trauma and abuse, and the pressures of parenting and family life. She also supports people facing career changes, depression, and coping with life transitions.

Judith brings six years of professional experience to her practice and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about difficult thoughts and feelings.

Background and approach

Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Judith often combines practical skills work with time to reflect on what matters most to a client. Her approach draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and on acceptance-focused work to help people live by their values.

Attachment-based techniques are used to look at relationship patterns and how early experiences shape current reactions. Judith also uses client-centred listening to make sure people feel heard and understood. Judith is comfortable discussing spiritual and religious issues when clients want that included.

She can work with people who wish to integrate faith into their therapy and has knowledge of the Bible to support those conversations. Sessions are offered in English and can take place online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Judith accepts clients internationally and uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them, and it focuses on taking steps that match personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, depression and work on life direction. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) concentrates on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with practical behavioural experiments and skills. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and some stress-related problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and aims to build more supported ways of relating and responding in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help you choose and adapt methods based on your goals, preferences and circumstances. Decisions about emphasis are made together as sessions progress so the plan stays relevant to what you need.

Online therapy offers a range of practical options including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video sessions are helpful when face-to-face style conversation matters, phone calls suit people who need less bandwidth, live chat can fit a short check-in, and text messaging allows ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel and to continue support when relocation is necessary.
