About Joanne
NCPS. 4 years' experience. Joanne Rothery works with people on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, coping with life changes and related concerns. She uses person-centred ways of working and draws on cognitive behavioural and trauma-focused methods where helpful. Sessions focus on what the client brings and practical steps they want to try.
Joanne introduces herself as a counsellor who listens without judgement. She writes from lived experience and describes stress, anxiety and trauma as common parts of life. In sessions she aims to offer steady, respectful attention and to welcome all parts of a person’s experience.
Her work includes support for grief, sleeping problems, anger, career difficulties, bipolar and compassion fatigue. She also pays attention to issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment and personality-related concerns. Joanne will talk through coping strategies and practical ways to manage overwhelming feelings.
Joanne uses Client-Centred Therapy as a foundation. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify thought and behaviour patterns, and Trauma-Focused Therapy when past events are affecting daily life. These methods are presented in plain terms and applied to everyday problems.
She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions are provided through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the See online counselling options button.
How her approaches are used in online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own experience, with the counsellor listening and reflecting back what is said to help the person feel understood. It is useful for building confidence and working through difficult feelings.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, stress and some mood difficulties.
Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses how past events affect current life and wellbeing, and it uses stabilising techniques and gradual processing to reduce distress from traumatic memories.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and agree a plan together. This collaborative process helps match methods to the person's needs.
Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so please confirm current options before booking.
