About Joanne

Joanne Raisbury-Harrison is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which is shown as BACP. Joanne aims to offer calm, respectful care to people who are feeling stuck or overwhelmed.

She helps people facing LGBT issues and those recovering from trauma and abuse. She also supports people with intimacy-related concerns, bipolar disorder and depression.

Background and approach

Additional areas she focuses on include guilt and shame, building self-love, and social anxiety or phobia. Joanne keeps sessions practical and centred on each person's needs. Conversations are shaped around what matters most to the individual.

She will adapt the pace and focus so the plan fits the client rather than forcing a set method. Joanne describes the first step as the hardest, and she aims to make that step easier. She works with sensitivity and compassion and respects each person's background and identity.

The tone in sessions is straightforward and caring. Her approach blends understanding the past with clear, manageable steps for today. Clients can expect a mix of talking things through, identifying patterns, and trying small changes to help day-to-day life.

Joanne supports people as they explore what they want to change and how to get there.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Joanne lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Joanne works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding patterns and making small, practical changes. One common approach involves looking at how past experiences shape current feelings and reactions, helping people make sense of triggers and reduce their impact on daily life. Another approach emphasises identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to ease low mood and anxiety.

Finding the right fit is part of the work. Joanne will collaborate with each person to choose or adapt approaches based on their goals, needs and preferences. She checks in about what helps and changes the plan as progress is made so therapy stays useful and relevant.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a near face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
