About Judy

Judy Khoury is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. She works with adults who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, depression, or the aftermath of trauma and abuse. She also supports people concerned about relationships, family dynamics, self-esteem and codependency. Sessions are offered in English and Arabic and international clients can be seen.

Judy keeps things direct and practical. She listens to what is happening now and helps people sort priorities and set small, manageable steps. Conversations focus on what the person wants to change and on skills that can be put into practice between meetings.

Her background includes several years working with people facing loss, caregiving strain, addiction and experiences of domestic violence. That experience informs how she notices patterns such as people-pleasing, difficulty saying no, or constant worry about other people’s moods. Judy pays attention to how those patterns affect everyday life and relationships.

In sessions she uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts the approach to what each person finds most helpful. She explains options in plain language and helps people try out new ways of communicating, setting limits, and managing strong emotions. The focus is on practical change rather than labels.

Practical matters such as fees depend on location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online booking flow.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Two evidence-based approaches commonly used with the problems Judy sees are cognitive methods and grief-focused work. Cognitive approaches look at unhelpful thinking and test new, more realistic ways of interpreting events; they help with anxiety, low mood and people-pleasing patterns. Grief-focused techniques help people make sense of loss, manage strong emotions and rebuild routines after a major change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Judy will discuss different techniques and help decide what fits your needs, goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as you try things out in sessions.

Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting meetings around work and caregiving commitments and reducing travel time. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as options are set by the booking process. Online work can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, arrange sessions across time zones, or avoid being on camera if that feels difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so the work continues between meetings.
