Ways of working Joanne names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Approaches that guide online therapy

Joanne commonly uses trauma‑focused work to help people process distressing events and reduce their impact on daily life. That approach aims to identify what keeps painful memories active and then build ways to feel safer and more in control.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify their values and take practical steps that match those values, even when feelings are difficult. Attachment‑based ideas are used to look at how early relationships shape current patterns and to build healthier ways of relating to oneself and others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Joanne treats approach selection as a collaborative process and will help you try methods that match your needs, goals and preferences. She adjusts the plan over time so it remains relevant to what you want to achieve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation for deeper discussion, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit short check‑ins or people who prefer writing. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on progress and support.
