About Trudy
Trudy Woods helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She supports those coping with life changes, trauma and abuse, sleeping and eating issues, anger, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Trudy also offers help with relationship and family concerns, career questions, and challenges linked to illness or caregiving.
Trudy uses a client-centred approach that places the person's experience at the heart of the work. She listens first and follows the pace each person sets.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding what matters to the client and finding practical ways to move forward. Her background includes five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She has worked in charities and volunteer services supporting people with chronic health conditions, bereavement and cancer-related distress, and has delivered independent practice work across a range of issues.
Trudy holds BACP registration, which is recorded as BACP. In sessions she aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where feelings can be talked through. She integrates life coaching tools, trauma-aware techniques and specialist counselling methods she has studied to tailor support to each person.
Expect a calm, steady style and practical focus on small, usable steps. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions. Therapy can be carried out by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging so people can choose what fits their life.

Approaches Trudy lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Alongside the client-centred foundation, Trudy uses life coaching techniques and trauma-aware counselling tools she has studied. Life coaching methods can help clarify goals, plan next steps and build practical routines. Trauma-aware methods support people to approach difficult memories and reactions at a pace that feels manageable.
Finding the right approach is a joint effort. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods to fit a person’s needs, goals and preferences. Clients are invited to give feedback so the style can change if something isn’t helpful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing notes between sessions or people who find typing easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and health commitments.
