About Jenny

Jenny Rudd works with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief and LGBT concerns, using practical talking therapy and skills-based work to help people move forward. She is a BACP counsellor with five years' experience and offers sessions to people in the UK and internationally.

Jenny listens to what is most troubling and helps people name their thoughts and feelings. She uses gentle challenge and practical strategies to reduce unhelpful thinking and to build coping skills. Sessions include space to reflect and to set small, realistic goals between meetings.

Her background includes work with people facing bereavement and relationship change, and with clients exploring gender and sexual relationship diversity. She has supported people through major life transitions, persistent low mood, and the stress that comes from caring for others or managing long-term health issues.

Jenny draws on a mix of approaches such as acceptance and commitment techniques, cognitive behaviour strategies, attachment-focused work and dialectical behaviour ideas. This means she may use values-based exercises, practical skill training, or attention to relationship patterns depending on what helps most.

Sessions are described as conversational and practical. Jenny aims to help people challenge stuck thinking, learn coping tools, and clarify their values so they can make clearer choices. People can expect collaborative planning and regular reviews of progress.

To begin, people are asked to use the site matching process to book an initial session and discuss the best way to work together.

How Jenny uses therapeutic approaches in remote sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and practical actions. It helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and take small steps towards what matters to them, which can suit issues like low mood and lack of direction.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It is often used to teach specific coping skills for anxiety, worry and unhelpful thinking patterns.

Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to relationship patterns and early bonds. It can help people understand how those patterns shape current relationships and intimacy-related issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jenny will discuss different methods and agree a way of working that matches the person's goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and can be reviewed as progress is made.

The original biography mentions online and telephone sessions, so please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Remote sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins where helpful. They also make it possible to continue work if someone is travelling or based outside the UK.
