About Judy
Judy blends several therapy methods to match how a person thinks and learns. She often uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot and change unhelpful thoughts. She also draws on acceptance and commitment principles to help people decide what matters most and take small steps toward it.
Her approach includes attention to how early relationships shape current patterns through attachment work. Judy uses client-centered ways of listening so clients feel heard and can guide the pace of change. Dialectical behavior tools are added when stronger emotion regulation skills are needed.
She has worked with people facing depression, addiction, trauma and abuse, relationship strain, parenting stress, sleep problems, career transitions, and chronic illness. Judy also supports those coping with compassion fatigue, ADHD, and complex life shifts.
Sessions are intended to be collaborative and goal-focused. Judy explains options, teaches skills, and tailors plans so each person can try strategies between sessions. Her aim is to help people feel more steady and in charge of the next steps.

How Judy’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and making life changes when worry gets in the way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing them with small behavioral experiments to reduce symptoms like low mood or panic. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people practice new ways of relating and coping.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Judy works with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily demands. She explains options, tries techniques, and adjusts the plan based on what helps most in real life.
