About Joanne

Joanne (Jo) Webster is a psychotherapeutic counsellor with ten years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She aims to put people at ease and helps them take the first steps when life feels overwhelming. Jo knows that starting therapy can be hard and focuses on building trust and a genuine connection with each person she sees.

Jo is registered with the NCPS, which she lists as her credential. Her work draws on several ways of helping so she can match the approach to the person’s needs.

Background and approach

That means sessions can look different depending on whether someone needs practical problem-solving, space to process grief, or help with patterns that repeat in relationships. She has a strong background in bereavement and loss after seven years working in palliative care supporting people with terminal illness and their families.

Jo has supported people through the death of a baby, child, young person or adult, and through the long process of anticipatory and post-bereavement grief. Her main areas of focus include stress, anxiety, family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, and coping with life changes. She also works with concerns such as attachment and abandonment, addiction, domestic violence, caregiving stress, and end-of-life counselling.

Jo uses a flexible, person-centred style and may draw on Trauma-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), hypnotherapy, motivational interviewing, psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused techniques. She aims to listen carefully, help people make sense of their experience, and agree practical steps together.

How Jo’s approaches work online

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people look at painful memories in small, manageable steps so they lose some of their hold. It is often used when past events keep causing distress in everyday life. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of sessions and relies on listening, empathy and collaboration to build change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jo will talk through goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit the person’s needs. That might mean trying a short goal-focused plan, exploring feelings over a longer period, or combining techniques in session by mutual agreement.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow a face-to-face feel when travel is difficult. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day and need less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging suit short check-ins, reflective writing, or people who prefer typing. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, care duties and changing routines.
