About Judi
Judi Lloyd is a counsellor with 15 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression, addiction and major life changes. She works with individuals on relationship and intimacy issues, grief and parenting strain. Judi also helps people facing career pressures, ADHD-related difficulties, and the emotional fallout of trauma and abuse.
Her style is warm and practical. Sessions focus on clear steps and understanding what matters most to the client. She draws on a mix of talking, skill-building and goal-setting so people can use what they learn between sessions.
Judi blends several evidence-informed approaches rather than following a single method. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and act on values, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. Attachment-focused work helps explore relational patterns that affect intimacy and trust.
Over 15 years Judi has worked with a wide range of concerns from low self-esteem to bipolar mood challenges and compassion fatigue. Her practice includes attention to neurodiversity, adoption and foster care issues, chronic illness, body image and complex co-morbidity. She also supports people exploring BDSM, kink and alternative sex cultures.
Judi offers online work and life coaching alongside therapeutic counselling. She encourages small, measurable changes and helps clients build resilience for long-term coping. Prospective clients are invited to check practical details and session options before booking.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Judi uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. That approach can help with anxiety, low mood and decisions around life change. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going, and to teach practical skills for managing symptoms.Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The counsellor works with each person to match methods to their needs, goals and preferences. Together they review what is helpful and adjust the focus as work progresses.
The biography notes that Judi offers online therapy but does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around family, work or travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins or phone conversations when video is not convenient. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt worksheets, behavioural experiments and value-based tasks to remote sessions so the core therapeutic work continues to fit everyday life.
