About Joanne

Joanne Jones is a counsellor who has practised for nine years and is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers one-to-one sessions for adults and has experience supporting people after trauma and during difficult life changes. Her background includes work in helplines and employee assistance programmes, giving her experience with a wide range of everyday pressures.

Joanne trained at Staffordshire University and completed postgraduate study in advocacy for victims of sexual violence.

Background and approach

She later worked as an Independent Sexual Violence Advisor and has supported people through the criminal justice system. Her training also includes clinical supervision, which she uses to reflect on her practice and keep standards high. Her approach is rooted in client-centred work, which means she follows the person and the issues they bring.

She combines that with attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Solution-focused techniques are used to identify practical next steps and small changes people can try between sessions. Joanne has substantial experience with trauma, including working with survivors of sexual and domestic violence.

She also works with common concerns such as anxiety, low mood, stress, relationship and intimacy issues, sleep and eating problems, and compassion fatigue. She is comfortable discussing matters around sexuality and kink when these are important to a client. Sessions are offered in English and she works with people across the United Kingdom and internationally.

Joanne aims to create a calm, steady space where people can talk honestly, explore their options and build clearer ways forward.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Joanne uses an attachment-based perspective to help people notice how early relationships affect current patterns of relating and trust. That approach can be useful for people who notice repeating difficulties in close relationships or who find emotional connections confusing.

She also practises client-centred counselling which focuses on listening, acceptance and following the client's agenda. This means sessions concentrate on what matters to the person in front of her and move at their pace. EMDR for trauma is offered as part of her work and is used to process distressing memories when a client and therapist agree it is appropriate.

Deciding which method to use is a collaborative process. Joanne will talk through options, check what feels manageable and agree a route that fits each person's goals and preferences. She adapts methods over time as needs change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from different locations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins and messaging suits people who prefer written reflection. These choices make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family or other commitments.
