About Judi

Judi Lloyd is an NCPS psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, and codependency. She also supports people dealing with grief, addictions, low self-esteem and difficulties around intimacy and communication.

Judi uses practical, talk-based work to help people untangle repeating patterns. Sessions focus on what is happening now - how habits, thoughts and relationships affect daily life. She offers straightforward strategies as well as space to reflect on emotions and relationship dynamics.

Her approach draws on a mix of evidence-informed methods. Judi uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and DBT skills to manage strong emotions. She also works with attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships shape current patterns, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clarify values and small actionable steps.

Clients who come for help with codependency get support in setting boundaries, recognising people-pleasing habits, and finding clearer personal priorities. Work may include practising saying no, mapping relationship patterns, and developing calm responses to others' crises.

Judi offers online sessions and life-coaching style conversations alongside clinical therapy. People are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling the first session. Payment uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Judi commonly works with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centred techniques. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thinking, clarify what matters to them, and take small consistent actions toward those values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and avoiding patterns that limit life.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. It helps people understand why they might put others first, struggle with boundaries, or repeat familiar relational behaviours. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person can find their own answers and make decisions at their own pace.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Judi will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences and will help decide which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as the work progresses.

If you want online sessions, check the booking flow to confirm which formats are currently offered. Confirming format options before booking ensures the sessions fit your routine. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow a shorter telephone check-in when needed, or avoid being on camera on some occasions.
