Alternatively your reason might be more difficult to put into words, not everyone has an identifiable reason for seeking support. Whatever your reason for counselling, I provide a confidential and non-judgmental space where your experiences, thoughts and feelings can be expressed and explored.

Hi there and welcome. I am passionate about working with people who are experiencing emotional difficulties relating to grief, loss, shame, blame or self-criticism, and working on healing the impact of trauma/ PTSD. I take a very holistic approach, so whether you feel grief or pain about the past, fear about the future, or anything in between, I’d love to help. I specialise in working with older adults and the LGBTQ+ community and I’m particularly experienced in working with gender identity, sexuality and wider identity concerns.

Hello I'm Jo Maybe you're considering making some changes. Are you feeling overwhelmed ? Perhaps you feel you need a safe and confidential space to share your concerns? I understand how difficult it is to ask for help, it takes a lot of courage when you feel so uncertain. It is important to me that you feel safe, listened to and comfortable when sharing your intimate thoughts, emotions and feelings. I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor, however, everyone is unique so adapt my approach to suit your needs.

I work with anxiety, panic, overwhelm, social anxiety, agoraphobia, constant worry, overthinking, insomnia, low self-esteem, people pleasing, boundary issues, difficult childhood experiences. I’m equally comfortable working alongside or outside of mental health diagnoses and labels. I offer single-session or long-term therapy, book-as-you-go or regular weekly sessions, longer 1.5-2 hr sessions, crisis sessions and combined counselling and guided mindfulness-based relaxation/CBT skills with recordings for home use. I provide an in-person therapeutic space for women & non-binary people - LGTBQ inc - and also online for all genders.

I am a warm, caring, compassionate and experienced therapist for children, young people and adults who struggle with everyday anxieties who may feel marginalised and isolated in their lives. For Children and Young People - counselling differs from that offered to counselling adults. A child's age specific difficulties and their development will determine the method I use to support children in expressing their thoughts, feelings and physical emotions. Working together ensures a positive outcome while covering issues such as Trauma, sexual abuse, anxiety, depression, self- harm, bullying and low self-esteem.

Online Counsellors
Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?
One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialised therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.
Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?
Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.
Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?
The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
