About Judith

Judith "Jude" Holland brings 27 years of professional practice in the United Kingdom and is accredited by the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She works from a person-centered stance, holding the belief that each person is the expert in their own story and that existing strengths can be mobilized to meet life’s challenges. Her experience spans relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, bipolar disorder and borderline presentations, and a wide range of life transitions.

Jude has worked with sexual trauma in many contexts, including service with the NHS at a sexual assault centre supporting women and families, and later as a clinical lead supporting men who had experienced sexual assault. She has clinical training in EMDR and has used brainspotting to help young people with performance anxiety. Trained in dialectical behavior therapy, she also works with couples and offers coaching for female abuse recovery.

Her early career included establishing a student counselling service and around 15 years teaching therapy, followed by leadership of a counselling service at a music college and university where she combined therapeutic support with a knowledge of performance environments. Jude aims to build a therapeutic relationship in which clients feel heard, valued, challenged and respected, and she adapts her approach to fit each person rather than endorsing a one-size-fits-all model.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape patterns of connection and safety. It helps people understand and change relational patterns that contribute to difficulties with trust, intimacy, or repeated conflicts. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and pace, offering an empathic, non-directive environment that supports self-discovery and confidence in making changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy combines practical skills training with a focus on emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and reducing impulsive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Judith "Jude" Holland works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors care rather than applying a single model, and the choice of techniques evolves as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility in how people connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home, phone sessions provide a simpler audio option, and live chat or text-based messaging can suit those who prefer written communication or more frequent brief check-ins. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family, and travel while maintaining continuity of care with licensed professionals and therapists.
