About Judith
Judith Hearne is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, eating concerns and major life changes. She also supports those dealing with trauma, parenting strain, career uncertainty and depression. Judith works with clients who want practical ways to cope and to rebuild a more manageable day-to-day life.
She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can name what feels difficult. Sessions focus on honest conversation and practical steps that feel doable.
Background and approach
Judith says taking the first step takes courage, and she aims to make that step easier. Her approach blends an interest in meaning and existence with practical therapies that address thinking and behaviour. She uses techniques drawn from cognitive behavioural work alongside acceptance-based and attachment-aware ways of working.
This gives clients options for emotional regulation, managing unhelpful thoughts, and improving close relationships. Judith has six years of professional experience and is a member of BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She can acknowledge and incorporate a client's faith when that is important to them, and she has familiarity with the Bible for those who request that perspective.
Sessions are offered in English and she works with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. She aims to support people who want straightforward, compassionate help to manage current problems and make clearer decisions about the future.

Online support
Approaches that guide online work
Existential therapy looks at the meaningful questions people face and helps them live more deliberately. It can be useful for those wrestling with purpose, loss, or major life transitions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and taking small actions that match personal values. This approach often helps with anxiety, depression and stress management. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early and current relationship patterns shape trust and closeness, and it supports learning different ways of relating to others.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Judith will work collaboratively to choose methods that fit a person's needs, goals and preferences. That means checking in about what feels helpful and adjusting techniques over time rather than sticking to a single method.
Online therapy offers flexibility and practical options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, while phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflection or people who prefer not to use video. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and busy days and let registered or accredited professionals offer consistent support across distances.
