Senia Wood, BACP

Senia Wood welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure about taking the first step towards support. She creates a warm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk at their own pace. Senia aims to help people feel heard and understood so they can begin to move forward.

Senia centres her work on relationships and human connection rather than medical labels. She brings kindness and curiosity to sessions and shapes therapy around each person's needs and goals. She treats people as whole individuals rather than a list of symptoms, and she works together with clients in a gentle, collaborative way.

She is a qualified Therapeutic Counsellor and a Registered Member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Senia has six years of practice experience and has worked with many common difficulties, including anxiety, depression, trauma and addiction.

Her practice draws on an integrative, humanistic framework with influences from Internal Family Systems-informed work and trauma-informed care. She offers video sessions and uses approaches that help with self-understanding, emotional regulation and repairing relationship patterns.

Senia has lived and studied across different cultures and brings sensitivity to issues of identity and belonging. She also lists ageing and geriatric issues among her areas of focus, along with caregiver stress, chronic illness, grief and life changes. She aims to help people feel more grounded, whole and able to make clearer choices about their lives.

Therapeutic approaches suited to online work

Senia uses Attachment-Based approaches that focus on how early and current relationships shape emotional responses, which can help with relationship difficulties and patterns of closeness or distance. She also works in a Client-Centred way, offering empathic listening and acceptance to help people explore their feelings and make their own choices. Additionally, her practice draws on Mindfulness techniques to support regulation of stress and anxiety through present-moment awareness and simple grounding exercises.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Senia will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit your goals, needs and preferences. Together you can try different ways of working and adapt the plan as things evolve.

The biography specifies that she offers video sessions, which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life without needing travel time. Video meetings support face-to-face interaction and help build rapport early on, while also allowing sessions around work, caregiving or health responsibilities. If you need a different format, confirm the current session options before booking so you can choose what suits your routine.
