About Judith

Judith Ramsay is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and money or career pressures. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma and relationship struggles. Judith uses everyday language and a straightforward style to make it easier to start a conversation.

She trained at Sunderland University and holds a BA (Hons) in Counselling. Her accreditation with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy is listed as BACP. Judith has eight years of experience working with individuals, including adult survivors of childhood abuse and unpaid carers navigating the impact of caregiving.

In sessions she adapts her approach to the person in front of her. She draws on Client-Centred Therapy to follow the client’s lead and build understanding. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Solution-Focused techniques to tease out unhelpful thinking and try small practical changes.

Judith works in a holistic and respectful way. She encourages clients to recognise strengths and try coping strategies that fit their life. Conversations are collaborative, with the person’s goals guiding the process.

People seeking help for eating or sleeping problems, anger, ADHD, compassion fatigue or health-related stress will find these concerns within her stated focus areas. Sessions aim to turn difficult experiences into manageable steps towards clearer thinking and steadier routines.

Approach-led online counselling and practical techniques

Judith draws on Client-Centred Therapy to create a calm, listening space where the client’s views guide each session. This approach focuses on understanding the person’s experience and building from their strengths to set achievable goals.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and supports practical changes. CBT tools can help with anxiety, low mood, unhelpful thinking and routines related to sleep or eating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Judith will discuss options and decide together which methods match a person’s goals and preferences. This is a collaborative conversation and may change as therapy progresses.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm the available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find it helps to try techniques in their everyday surroundings and bring what happens between sessions back into the conversation.
