About me and my therapy practice
Hi, I am Joanne.
I work with Adults, Young People and Children
Are you struggling with
ANXIETY, LOW MOOD, ARE YOU HAVING DIFFICULTY REGULATING YOUR EMOTIONS, RELATIONSHIP DIFFICULTIES, LACK OF SELF ESTEEM AND CONFIDENCE?
I am an Integrative Counsellor, meaning 'no single approach fits all' just like, I believe 'we are all unique'
We have been raised with our own values and beliefs to feel accepted just how we are, this is exactly how I see you.
I will sit with you, listen and guide you to become the better version of yourself supporting you through the challenges you may be facing.
I have been working as a counsellor for over twenty years.
My experience as a Counsellor has been in schools both primary and secondary education, also for counselling services in and around Kent.
As a Counsellor, I believe that there is not one approach that will help one person in all situations, this is why I like to work holistically using elements of different approaches to help you to explore and cope with your problems, for you to hopefully gain a better understanding of yourself and others.
I can listen, understand, not judge, not assume and remain curious in a confidential environment.
We can focus on your thoughts, feelings and behaviour's using CBT techniques that can become a toolbox for you to work with outside of the counselling room.
As two people in the room, we can try to make sense of what is going on for you, 'two minds can sometimes work better than one!'
I believe effective counselling comes from the foundations of a therapeutic relationship based on trust, safety and feeling heard.
Practice description
Are you looking to make changes in your life?
Find your purpose ? Work through change ?
Do you wake up feeling ANXIOUS or LOW
, are you going through a stressful period in your life, where you would like a space to feel heard and listened to in a non judgmental way?
Are you feeling emotionally dysregulated (a fluctuation of feelings that you may be finding hard to manage which are causing trouble within your relationships, work and general daily life)
Being free to speak and not feel like you are all alone, can sometimes just be what you need to make sense of your thoughts.
We often fear judgement or fear of upsetting the other.
I provide a personal space for you to work through these challenges.
My own life journey brings me to a place of authenticity and personal growth, and I would like you to move to a place inside you that feels just enough for you at this time.
