About Judith
Judith Hearne is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and life changes. She supports those coping with addictions, eating concerns, relationship strain and trauma. Judith aims to make it easier to talk about difficult feelings and starts by creating a calm, non-judgemental space.
She uses clear, practical methods so people can notice small changes that add up. Sessions are collaborative and focused on what matters to each person.
Background and approach
Judith combines cognitive approaches with work on values and emotional connection to help people move forward. Judith has six years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She brings a background in cognitive behavioural methods and also draws on acceptance and attachment ideas to shape sessions.
She is comfortable discussing the role of faith when clients wish to include it, and has knowledge of the Bible to support those who want that perspective in their work. Judith aims to respect each person’s beliefs while focusing on practical steps for change.
Sessions cover a wide range of concerns beyond mood, including parenting strain, career stress, chronic illness and body image. Judith helps people set realistic goals, build coping skills and practise new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Online support
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Judith will listen to what you want to change and what feels manageable. Together you will try methods that fit your goals and adapt them as work progresses so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone calls can work well when internet bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or need more flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and health commitments and allow people in different locations to access care from registered or accredited professionals.
