About Judith

Judith Brunow is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Indiana with 19 years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, low self-esteem, depression, and parenting concerns. She also supports clients facing relationship strain, grief, trauma, and life transitions.

Judith speaks English and offers care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Judith centers sessions on each person’s strengths and story.

Background and approach

She treats clients as experts on their own lives and listens first to understand what matters. Sessions are practical and focused, with attention to building motivation, confidence, and coping skills. Judith aims to make the work feel achievable and direct.

Her practice includes support for mood disorders and problems like panic, obsessive thoughts, and compulsive behaviors. She also addresses issues such as chronic illness, cancer-related concerns, codependency, and substance or process addictions. Judith brings nearly two decades of experience to these topics and draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques.

Therapy with her often involves breaking larger problems into manageable steps and practicing skills between sessions. She encourages small, consistent changes that can add up over time. Judith works collaboratively to set clear goals and track progress.

Clients who want to begin are asked to complete a short questionnaire to match with her and then schedule sessions based on availability. The subscription-based service used for sessions can be canceled at any time.

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Judith uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skill-building and practical change. One common approach she employs is cognitive-behavioral style work, which helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety, panic, obsessions, and mood symptoms. This approach emphasizes clear goals and exercises to practice between sessions.

She also draws on methods that support coping with addiction and compulsive patterns by mapping triggers, developing replacement strategies, and strengthening motivation. These techniques are useful for substance and process addictions, as well as for addressing control issues and compulsive behaviors.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Judith collaborates with each person to pick methods that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. She adjusts plans over time based on what proves most helpful and works to make therapy feel manageable and relevant.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These options let people fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain continuity during life changes. Remote formats also allow for regular check-ins, homework review, and quick support between longer sessions.
