About Joanne
Joanne Kevan is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and low self-esteem. She works with issues such as sleep problems, parenting strain, grief, anger and career worries. Joanne uses a warm, non-judgemental style to make it easier to speak about difficult things.
Joanne brings three years of professional experience to her practice and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Background and approach
She describes her approach as integrative, which means she draws on different evidence-based techniques to suit each person. Sessions aim to be practical and straightforward, not full of jargon. In the room she focuses on creating emotional safety and freedom of speech.
Conversations look at what sits behind current problems so people can better understand themselves. Together the therapist and client work towards clearer goals and ways to cope day to day. Joanne often helps clients identify patterns that keep problems repeating.
She supports practical steps for change, such as building self-compassion, improving communication or creating a routine to aid sleep. Her manner is calm and encouraging, and she keeps sessions focused on what the client wants to achieve. She works with adults who want one-to-one counselling and she accepts clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Beginning therapy can feel hard, and Joanne aims to make the first steps as manageable as possible.

How Joanne uses evidence-based approaches online
Joanne uses integrative, evidence-based techniques to help people manage distress and build coping skills. One common approach is a problem-focused method that helps identify patterns that maintain anxiety or low mood and introduces practical steps to change them; this is helpful for sleep problems, panic and ongoing worry. She also uses trauma-informed listening and stabilisation strategies that aim to make difficult memories easier to talk about and to reduce overwhelming reactions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Joanne will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then agree a way of working together. She treats this as a collaborative process and adjusts methods as progress is made or new issues arise.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, so people can pick the format that fits their life. Video works well for face-to-face conversation, phone can be useful when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can be handy for brief check-ins or when people prefer not to be on camera. These options make counselling more flexible for those balancing work, family and other commitments.
