About Senia
Senia Wood is a Therapeutic Counsellor and a Registered Member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) with six years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people experiencing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, and a wide range of related issues including ADHD and self‑esteem struggles. Sessions are offered in English.
Senia uses a relational, human-centred way of working rather than a medical or diagnostic model. She focuses on listening and building trust so people can talk through painful memories and current problems at a pace that feels workable. Her practice emphasises trauma-informed care and support for developmental trauma and adverse childhood experiences.
Her approach blends attachment-based thinking with client-centred and existential perspectives. Mindfulness and somatic ideas also inform the work, helping people notice how thoughts and feelings show up in the body. She draws on Internal Family Systems–informed ideas to help people understand internal conflicts and parts that affect mood and behaviour.
Senia has experience supporting people with eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, intimacy-related concerns, career stress, bipolar challenges, and coping with major life changes. She also helps with care and caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, body image, codependency and communication problems.
She trained to deliver therapy online and by phone through ACTO-approved training and currently offers video sessions for initial contact. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first appointment through the online options button.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Senia commonly draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred practice and mindfulness in online work. Attachment-based approaches look at how early relationships shape present feelings and expectations, which can help with relationship worries and patterns of avoidance. Client-centred practice keeps the focus on the person in front of the counsellor, using reflective listening and gentle pacing to help someone make sense of their experience. Mindfulness offers simple ways to notice thoughts, emotions and bodily sensations, which can be useful for anxiety, stress and overwhelm.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Senia treats finding a good fit as a collaborative process and will talk with clients about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful as sessions progress. She will adapt methods to match the issues raised and the client's pace.
Practical benefits of video sessions include being able to attend from wherever fits a day’s schedule and keeping appointments that might be difficult to reach in person. Video lets the counsellor and client see facial expressions and non-verbal cues, which can support connection and allow for gentle somatic noticing. The biography notes she offers video sessions for new clients, so confirm the full range of session options before booking to ensure they fit your routine and needs.
