Judy Khoury

Judy Khoury is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and life changes. She also supports those facing relationship and family concerns, self‑esteem struggles, and compassion fatigue. Judy speaks English and Arabic and brings seven years of professional experience to her practice.

Her work centres on respectful, sensitive conversations that aim to understand each person's situation. She adapts sessions and any plan to the individual, so conversations feel relevant and manageable. Judy encourages small, practical steps that can make day‑to‑day life easier.

She has worked with issues such as abandonment, attachment questions, adoption and foster care matters, and body image. Other areas she addresses include caregiver stress, cancer‑related worries, codependency, substance and eating concerns, and domestic violence. These are approached in straightforward, paced discussions tailored to each person.

Judy uses evidence‑based therapeutic techniques and will shape the approach to fit what someone needs. She aims to create a steady space for people to talk things through and try different ways of coping. The emphasis is on clarity, realistic goals and building on strengths.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and Judy accepts international clients who are comfortable working in English or Arabic.

Evidence‑based approaches and online therapy options

Judy uses evidence‑based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical work. One common approach she uses involves helping people identify patterns in thoughts and behaviours and testing small changes to reduce stress and low mood; this helps with anxiety, depression and unhelpful coping habits. Another approach concentrates on processing difficult or traumatic events at a steady pace, supporting people to feel safer and more grounded after distressing experiences.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Judy will talk through different ways of working and adjust methods depending on a person's goals, needs and preferences. She aims to collaborate so the plan feels achievable and relevant rather than imposed.

If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats the therapist currently offers before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check‑in meetings when that suits a schedule. For some people it also makes it simpler to access a therapist who speaks English or Arabic even if they live elsewhere.
