Judy Hu, ACA

Judy Hu is an ACA-credentialed counsellor based in Australia with seven years of professional practice. She works with adults, young people and children who have experienced a range of difficult life events, including trauma, family violence and sexual abuse, as well as common concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, panic attacks, relationship and communication problems, and struggles with self-esteem. She offers therapy in both English and Mandarin and draws on a broad set of trainings to tailor care to each person’s needs.

Her practice blends gentle empathy with practical tools, combining person-centered listening with evidence-informed techniques to support emotional regulation, coping, and personal growth. With children she adapts interventions to include Play Therapy, Art Therapy and Sand Tray approaches to make therapy developmentally appropriate and engaging. Judy values short-term gains that build toward lasting change and often helps clients uncover insights that shift long-standing patterns.

Clients note her warmth, acceptance, empathic presence and supportive manner. She brings an open, curious stance shaped in part by a Christian faith background, and works without judgment to help people explore what may be getting in the way of their goals. Her ACA credential indicates membership in a professional counselling association, and she focuses on empowering clients to rediscover self-worth, strengthen relationships and move toward healthier coping.
