Сения Вуд прекрасный специалист, понимает потребности, внимательна, комфортна в общении, очень жалею, что ранее не обращалась к такому специалисту.

Welcome! I'm really glad you're here!

Thinking about reaching out for support takes courage. Starting therapy can feel daunting, whether you're overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin. But taking this step today is essential to the change you’re hoping for—and you don’t have to do it alone.

My focus in therapy is on you: on creating a warm, trusting, and non-judgmental space where you can safely explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace. I believe that being heard, accepted, and understood can have a powerful impact on emotional well-being and the ability to move forward.

What to expect when working with me

My approach is human and relational, rather than medical or diagnostic. I bring kindness, intuition, and respect into each session, and I tailor our work to reflect your unique needs and goals. I see each client as a whole person, not a list of symptoms, and I’ll work in partnership with you, gently and collaboratively.

About my training and experience

I’m a qualified Therapeutic Counsellor and a Registered Member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), meaning I work ethically and am committed to providing a high-quality, professional service. I’m also trained in delivering therapy online and by phone through ACTO-approved training (Association for Counselling and Therapy Online, UK).

My work is integrative with a strong humanistic foundation, and I draw especially from Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed therapy. This approach supports deep self-understanding, healing from emotional pain, and cultivating more inner harmony and self-trust.

Over the past six years, I’ve supported people through a wide range of issues, including anxiety, low mood, stress, emotional overwhelm, relationship difficulties, low self-worth, trauma, childhood abuse, addiction, grief, and significant life changes. My particular focus is on trauma-informed care, offering support for those impacted by developmental trauma, adverse childhood experiences, or overwhelming life events.

Having lived and studied across different cultures, I bring a deep appreciation for the richness and complexity of diverse life experiences. I work with individuals from a wide range of backgrounds, offering a heartfelt sensitivity to issues of identity, difference, and belonging. I understand how challenging it can be to move between cultures — to find your place, connect with others, and feel truly seen.

My aim is to offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where your story is met with care and understanding. I want to help you feel more like yourself again: grounded, whole, and empowered to live with greater clarity, meaning, and ease. Whether you're ready to begin or still feeling unsure, I’m here to walk alongside you with respect and compassion.

I look forward to the possibility of working together!

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.

There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Senia is very good, I would highly recommend her. She is very attentive and insightful. She has always discussed the plan with me and never imposed it, which I greatly appreciated, because every person is different and one method of counselling may not be effective on everyone. She always took the time to discuss the therapy goals, explain the approach, ask for permission before beginning and/or continuing. I have gained a lot of tools from her which I will use in daily life and on my journey of self-healing and self-care.
