Background and approach

Her work follows a client-centred approach, which means sessions are shaped around each person’s needs and pace. The sessions are collaborative - clients set goals and Joanne helps to track progress. Practical tools and straightforward conversations are used to manage anxiety and day-to-day stress.

Joanne has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different routines and comfort levels. People often come to Joanne for support with self-esteem, coping with life changes, addictions, career concerns and compassion fatigue.

She also works with more complex difficulties such as bipolar symptoms, attachment issues and dissociation, always tailoring the pace and focus to each person’s situation. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions at times that fit their lives.

Practical client-centred work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person rather than a fixed programme. The counsellor offers active listening and reflection so the client feels heard and can find their own solutions. This approach suits issues like anxiety, stress, relationship concerns and struggles with self-esteem because it follows the client’s pace and priorities.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Joanne works collaboratively to decide what feels most helpful based on the client’s needs, goals and personal preferences. Together they review what is working and adjust the focus as the work progresses.

Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distances, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day, live chat suits those who prefer typing in the moment, and text-based messaging lets people check in between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and other commitments while keeping the therapy focused and practical.
