About Senia
Senia Wood is a counsellor who focuses on helping people find steadier sleep and rest alongside other difficulties. She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what keeps them awake, worried, or exhausted. Sessions are guided by the person’s pace and priorities rather than a fixed plan.
Senia takes a human, relational approach to therapy. She listens closely and reflects what she hears so people can make sense of their experience. The work is collaborative - she helps people spot patterns, try small changes, and build routines that support better sleep and daily functioning.
She is a Therapeutic Counsellor and a Registered Member of the BACP, which means she follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy standards. Senia has practised for six years and has supported people with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addictions, relationship and family concerns, and sleep problems among other issues.
Her practice draws on attachment-based thinking and client-centred care, with somatic and mindfulness-informed techniques to help with bodily symptoms and restlessness. Senia also uses existential ideas to help people find meaning during life changes and distress.
Senia works with people from diverse cultural backgrounds and pays attention to how migration, identity, and life transitions affect wellbeing. She offers video sessions only for new clients, so a stable internet connection is needed. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule their first appointment.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work focuses on relationships and how early patterns shape current connections. Online sessions use conversation and reflection to spot these patterns and try new ways of relating that can ease anxiety and improve rest. Client-centred therapy emphasises being heard and accepted. That approach helps people feel safe to talk about sleeplessness, overwhelm or shame without pressure, and the counsellor follows the person’s lead to make changes that fit their life.Senia also uses mindfulness and somatic ideas to help with body-based symptoms that disturb sleep. Mindfulness practices bring attention to breathing and simple routines that calm a busy mind. Somatic techniques involve noticing bodily tension and learning small ways to release it, which can support more comfortable rest at night.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Senia will discuss options with each person and agree a way forward together, based on their needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative planning can include trialling different practices and checking what helps between sessions.
The profile specifies video sessions, particularly for new clients, so please confirm whether that remains the format before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around home, work or caring responsibilities, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed without losing the relational focus of in-person meetings.
