She also supports people facing low self-esteem, grief, addiction, bipolar challenges and struggles with sleep or eating.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to make difficult memories and patterns easier to talk about and understand. Her style draws on a mix of practical and reflective approaches. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small changes.

Attachment-based ideas help look at how early relationships shape reactions today. Joanne also brings mindfulness and Jungian perspectives into conversations. Mindfulness practices help ground people in the present and reduce overwhelm.

Jungian ideas can help uncover personal stories and symbols that matter to the individual. She holds BACP credentials, which indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Joanne has four years of clinical experience working with a broad range of emotional and relational issues across the United Kingdom.

Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Appointments can be arranged online by completing the platform questionnaire and scheduling to suit your needs.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Joanne uses cognitive behavioural therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. This approach is useful for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and habits that people want to shift. Attachment-based therapy is also part of her work and looks at how early relationship patterns influence current reactions and intimacy issues. It can help people understand recurring relationship problems and build more supported ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Joanne works collaboratively to decide which methods fit best with a person’s goals and day-to-day life. She checks in about what feels useful and adapts the mix of practical techniques and reflective work as therapy progresses.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat offers short check-ins and messaging lets people write between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping consistency of support from registered or accredited professionals.
