About James
Counsellor James Moody is a BACP member with six years of experience. He works with stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and a range of other concerns listed in his profile.
James uses a mix of talking therapies to help people manage everyday pressures. He focuses on clear, practical conversations about what is happening now and what the client wants to change. Sessions aim to identify patterns that cause distress and test small, manageable steps for different ways of coping.
He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts while committing to meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try alternative responses. Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused ideas inform work on connection, communication and feelings in close relationships.
James also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and addiction-related problems. He works with issues around self-esteem, parenting, career pressure and compassion fatigue. The profile lists a broader set of concerns he addresses, including ADHD, body image and communication problems.

How his therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people learn to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. It encourages choosing actions that matter, so it is useful for anxiety, low motivation and life changes.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It is practical and task-focused, often using short experiments to test new ways of thinking or acting when anxiety or stress are a problem.
Attachment-based ideas focus on patterns of relating and how early connections shape current relationships. This work can help with intimacy issues, communication problems and emotional closeness.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each person and decide together what methods fit their goals and preferences. That makes the process collaborative and it lets the client try different ways of working as needed.
The profile does not specify session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also suit people who prefer not to use a camera or who need a quieter setting at a particular time.
