Psychotherapeutic Counsellor MNCPS Acc., Hypnotherapist & Perinatal Practitioner
A Warm Welcome
Hi there, I’m Joanne -- most people call me Jo.
If you’re living in a constant state of high alert, feeling tense, exhausted, or caught in cycles of worry, self-doubt, or overthinking, you’re in the right place. Many people I work with are capable and resourceful, but still find themselves struggling to switch off and relax.
I support people with a wide range of issues, with much of my work centred around anxiety in its many forms — from burnout and workplace stress, to fears and phobias, perinatal anxiety, and parenting overwhelm. I also work with people facing family or relationship challenges, and neurodivergent adults navigating a world that isn’t always accommodating.
Alongside counselling, I’m a hypnotherapist and perinatal practitioner. I combine training and my own lived experience of burnout, anxiety, neurodivergence, and parenting to help people feel calmer, more confident, and more in tune with themselves.
I know reaching out for help can be nerve-wracking — I’ve been there myself, both in a busy corporate role and as a mother. That’s why I like to keep things simple and relaxed, with no pressure or judgment, so you can talk openly and feel comfortable and supported in a way that works for you.
You’re welcome to have a look around my website to find out more about me, how I work, and how I might be able to help — and if you would like to take the next step please get in touch via my contact form.
Therapy That Works For You
As a pluralistic therapist, I draw on a range of counselling and hypnotherapy approaches, tailoring sessions to suit your needs, goals, and pace.
For some, therapy offers space simply to talk and be heard. For others, it’s about learning new coping strategies or exploring deeper patterns from the past. When working with fears and phobias, I often integrate counselling with hypnotherapy, which many clients find particularly effective.
With flexible booking and online sessions available, therapy can fit around your life and commitments. Whatever your reason for coming to therapy, our work together will always be guided by what feels most helpful and meaningful for you.
Services I Offer
I tailor support to you and your needs. You might be looking for open-ended therapy, where we work together for as long as you feel is beneficial, or you may want to work to a specific goal or timeframe.
I offer the following services:
Finding The Right Therapist
I know that choosing the right therapist is such a personal thing and it's difficult to make a decision just by searching for therapy online. Thats's why I offer a free, no obligation, 15 minute introduction call as an opportunity for us to chat and get a feel for whether we might work well together. Get in touch to book here. Here is what past clients say:

Joanne was patient & caring in her approach & created a calm atmosphere so I was able to speak about how my fear controlled many aspects of my life ... I have conquered this fear ... Therapy has decreased my daily anxiety and I would have no hesitation in recommending Joanne.
