About James
James Moody is a counsellor who works from a client-centred outlook. He focuses on creating a respectful and compassionate space where people can be heard. He aims to tailor conversations and plans to each person’s needs, and he encourages clients to take small steps towards change.
He has six years of professional experience and holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He has supported people dealing with stress and anxiety, low self-esteem and motivation, relationship and intimacy concerns, and life transitions.
James uses a mix of practical therapy styles. He draws on Client-Centred Therapy to prioritise the client's perspective and on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to look at thoughts and actions that influence mood. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based approaches when these fit the concern at hand.
In sessions he aims to listen first and work at a pace that feels safe. He often helps people identify small, manageable steps for coping and change. He also works on communication and boundaries in relationships when that is relevant.
People come to him for a wide range of issues, including grief, trauma, addiction concerns, parenting strain and career stress. He is available to work with international clients and conducts sessions in English.
How therapy approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding your experience from your point of view and offering a non-judgemental space to talk. It helps when someone needs to make sense of feelings, build self-trust, or decide on next steps. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that matter to you; it often helps with anxiety, low motivation and life changes. Attachment-Based approaches pay attention to how early relationships shape current patterns and can be useful for intimacy, trust and communication problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with you about your goals and preferences and will suggest ways of working that fit what you want to achieve. That choice is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.
Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow people to join from different places if travel is difficult or timing is tight. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can adapt exercises, reflection prompts and behavioural tasks to work well in remote sessions, helping you practise new skills between meetings.
