Judy KhouryBACP

Judy Khoury is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and major life changes. She also helps with relationship and family concerns, self-esteem and compassion fatigue. Judy works in English and Arabic and has seven years of professional experience.

Judy aims for a respectful and sensitive approach in sessions. She adapts conversations and plans to fit each person’s situation. Her style is practical and warm, focusing on what the client needs now.

She helps people talk through painful memories and strong emotions. That can include practical coping skills for anxiety, grounding during flashbacks, or strategies to manage low mood. She also supports people dealing with issues such as abandonment, attachment worries, body image and caregiver stress.

Judy is open to working with people affected by addiction, domestic violence, eating and food-related issues, and those navigating separation or divorce. She will discuss goals and adjust pace so the work feels manageable.

Her BACP credential indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Judy describes taking the first step as an act of courage and offers steady support while people work toward clearer, more fulfilling days.

Evidence-based approaches and online support

Judy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work. One common approach she may draw on helps people manage anxiety by teaching breathing and grounding exercises, identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, and building steady coping routines. Another approach focuses on trauma-informed care, which helps people process difficult memories at a pace they can handle while learning tools to reduce overwhelming reactions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Judy will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then decide together which techniques to try and how quickly to move. The plan may change as needs evolve, with regular check-ins to ensure the work remains helpful.

If you are considering remote sessions, confirm the exact formats Judy currently offers before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people join from different countries, which is helpful for international clients. The therapist will discuss what works best for scheduling and for the practical realities of each person’s life.
