More about Joanne
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I gained my Diploma in Humanistic Psychotherapeutic Counselling in 2023. My trainee experience was at a low-cost, affordable community counselling service in south-east London. I have experience of dealing with clients with anxiety and depression, stress, family conflicts, trauma and abuse. I currently volunteer at a national bereavement charity and so also have experience of working with grief and loss. I believe that we are all equal despite where we might currently be in our lives. Being trustworthy, approachable and non-judgemental are all very important to me as is you feeling listened to and heard. I hope to provide the right conditions and a non-judgemental space for you feel safe and able to trust me so that we can start to look at what might be going on for you. We’ll explore through dialogue as a way of becoming more aware of what might be blocking you from moving forward with your life and relationships and experimenting with new ways to change that. My hope would be to help you to have more of an understanding of yourself, to empower you and so give you more choices in your life.

About online counseling

- Pay a low flat fee.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
