Jenny Rudd, BACP

Jenny Rudd is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and changes in midlife. She supports those feeling stuck, lacking self-worth, or struggling with relationship and intimacy issues. Jenny also works with people from the LGBT community and those coping with bereavement, trauma, parenting challenges, career change and ADHD. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space to begin the work of change.

Jenny listens and encourages clients to talk through difficult thoughts and feelings. She helps people challenge unhelpful beliefs and build practical coping strategies. Sessions focus on identifying values and small steps that reconnect people with purpose and confidence.

Her approach draws on a mix of methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred techniques. Jenny adapts tools to each person, teaching skills such as emotion regulation and mindful acceptance. She aims to make the work practical and relevant to everyday life.

As a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy member, Jenny brings five years of counselling experience. She has worked with clients in the UK and internationally, and has experience supporting those affected by bereavement and LGBT concerns. Her background includes work with a LGBT charity agency, focusing on gender and sexual relationship diversity.

People can expect an individualised plan that reflects their goals. Jenny offers telephone and online counselling as part of her practice; clients are invited to explore what format feels best for them before booking.

How Jenny’s approaches translate to online work

Jenny uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them, and to reconnect with personal values that guide meaningful action. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood and feeling lost during life transitions.

She also draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy and giving people space to make sense of their own experiences. This can be useful for grief, relationship concerns and rebuilding self-esteem.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Jenny works collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person’s goals and situation. She adapts techniques over time and checks in about what is helping and what needs changing.

Jenny offers online and telephone counselling and has experience working with clients in the UK and internationally. Please confirm the exact session formats available before booking so you can choose what fits your routine. Many people find online or phone sessions make it easier to fit counselling around work, travel or family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed and remove travel time from their day.
