About Trudy

Trudy Woods is a counsellor who helps people coping with stress, anxiety, grief, low self‑esteem and depression. She supports those facing life changes, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, eating or sleeping challenges, anger, career concerns, and compassion fatigue. Trudy also offers help around ADHD, postpartum depression and a wide range of other worries.

She uses a person-centred style that begins by listening to each person’s experience. Sessions are led by the client’s priorities and Trudy tailors the way they work together to meet those goals.

Background and approach

Conversations focus on what matters now and practical steps the client can try between sessions. Trudy has five years of professional experience and is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Her background includes voluntary and charity work supporting people with chronic health and emotional wellbeing concerns, and independent practice work across many presenting issues.

She has completed further training in life coaching, trauma work, specialist counselling for abuse, depression, anger and anxiety, and stress management. That wider study informs how she shapes sessions and practical follow‑up tasks. Sessions are offered in English and are arranged around each person’s needs.

Trudy aims to make the first steps straightforward and supportive, helping clients find clearer thinking and more manageable day-to-day routines.

Ways of working Trudy names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Person‑centred care and online therapy options

Trudy primarily works in a person-centred way, which means the client’s experience directs the pace and focus of sessions. This approach helps when someone needs to talk through feelings such as grief, low self‑esteem, anxiety or the impact of illness, and it aims to build understanding and self-direction.

She also brings in life coaching ideas to help set practical goals and small steps between sessions. That can be useful for clients facing career changes, midlife questions, money worries or finding day-to-day routines that work better.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Trudy will discuss different ways of working and help clients choose what fits their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as understanding grows.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow a fuller face-to-face conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter updates, ongoing coaching tasks or when writing helps someone process thoughts. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving or health commitments.
