Senia Wood

Senia Wood welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin. She writes in a direct, calm way that can help someone who’s nervous about taking the first step. Senia offers a space that is warm, accepting and non-judgemental so people can talk through emotions at their own pace.

Senia works from a human and relational perspective rather than a medical model. She focuses on the whole person and aims to tailor sessions to each person’s needs and goals. The relationship in the room matters, and she brings kindness, intuition and respect to every meeting.

She is a Therapeutic Counsellor and a Registered Member of the BACP, which reflects her commitment to professional standards. Senia has six years’ experience supporting people through a wide range of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, trauma and anger.

Senia’s practice is integrative with a strong humanistic base, and she uses approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centred methods, existential thinking, mindfulness and somatic awareness. She also draws on Internal Family Systems-informed ideas to help people understand different parts of themselves.

Senia has experience working with people affected by developmental trauma and adverse childhood experiences. Having lived and studied across cultures, she brings sensitivity to issues of identity and belonging. Her aim is to help people feel more grounded, clearer about their choices, and better able to move forward.

Approaches in online counselling and how they help

Senia often draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This can be useful for people who feel easily activated in relationships or who struggle with trust and closeness.

She also works in a client-centred way, which means she prioritises listening and following the person’s pace and priorities. That approach helps when someone just needs a steady, understanding space to make sense of stressful feelings.

Mindfulness and somatic methods are used to help people notice how stress shows up in the body and to develop simple ways of calming down. These techniques often suit issues like anxiety, anger and trauma where physical reactions are part of the problem.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Senia will discuss options and try different ways of working based on the person’s needs, goals and preferences. The decision about which methods to use is collaborative rather than imposed.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are described in the therapist’s profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, family or travel, reduce commute time and allow more consistent contact when life gets busy. It can also make shorter check-ins or weekly sessions simpler to manage without adding extra travel.
