About Jenny
Jenny Rudd is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She works with people who feel not good enough, alone, anxious, or stuck. Jenny supports those facing relationship strain, grief, identity questions, and challenges to self-esteem.
She invites people to talk through thoughts and feelings in short, direct sessions. Jenny listens without judgement and helps clients spot unhelpful beliefs. She introduces practical coping strategies and builds simple skills for managing stress and anxiety.
Sessions include work on values and meaning, so people can find clearer direction. She uses reflective conversation to help people challenge negative self-talk. The focus is on gradual changes that fit everyday life rather than on quick fixes.
Jenny has experience with relationship issues, bereavement counselling and LGBT concerns. She has also supported people living with chronic illness, caregiver stress, career difficulties, and codependency-related patterns. That background informs how she responds to people who prioritise others at their own expense.
Her approach draws on several counselling methods, including cognitive tools to reframe thoughts and skills for managing emotions. Over time she helps clients set achievable goals and notice small gains. People who want to start are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first session.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without being controlled by them and reconnect with what matters. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting thought patterns and practising small behavioural changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current closeness and trust, and it can help people who feel drawn into others' problems. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to try methods that fit their aims and comfort level. That may mean using thinking tools one week and focusing on relationship patterns the next, depending on what is most useful. The biography notes that Jenny has offered online and telephone counselling, but session formats were not fully specified. Confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or avoiding the need to be on camera. Telephone sessions can be useful when a quieter or lower-bandwidth option is needed. Registered or accredited professionals can guide clients on which format suits their goals and daily routine.Areas of focus
