I'm Jo, an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist. I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and adhere to their ethical framework. My practice is trauma-informed and LGBTQ+ affirming.
As your therapist, I offer a warm and non-judgemental space in which you can explore your thoughts and feelings. Together we will reflect on your goals for therapy and consider the best approach to suit your individual needs and preferences. I can work with you using a range of modalities, including humanistic, psychodynamic and behavioural therapies.
At the heart of my practice is the belief that you are the expert in your own life. Through our work together, we will reflect on your current situation, explore your hopes for the future and harness your unique strengths and resources to get you where you want to be.
It is important that therapy is a collaborative, dynamic and empowering process. As our work together progresses, there will be regular opportunities to review how therapy is going, and to explore whether there is anything you would like to change.
Above all, my goal as your therapist is to build a safe and trusting relationship through which you can feel empowered to create positive, meaningful and sustainable change in your life.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
