About Judith
Judith Hearne is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain and depression. She supports those coping with life changes, parenting concerns, eating difficulties and trauma and abuse. Judith works with clients who also want help around career questions, family conflict and a wide range of attachment and identity concerns.
Her sessions are straightforward and warm. She aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgement.
Background and approach
Judith encourages small, practical steps so people can try things between sessions and see what helps. Judith draws on a mix of approaches to suit each person. She uses cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking, acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values, and attachment-informed ways to look at relationship patterns.
She also brings person-centred listening to make people feel heard. She has six years of professional experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Judith speaks English and offers sessions to people in the United Kingdom and internationally.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Judith commonly uses cognitive behavioural therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy in her online work. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and testing new ways of responding to reduce distress. Acceptance and commitment therapy, ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that match their values.She also draws on attachment-informed ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns. That approach can be useful when people want to understand repeated relationship difficulties or fears around closeness and abandonment. The choice of approach is collaborative - the therapist will discuss options and adapt methods to fit each person’s concerns and goals.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text messaging to make therapy easier to fit into daily life. Video calls work well for fuller conversations and exercises. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer written exchanges or need flexible timing. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care across locations and busy schedules.
