About Joanne
Joanne Jones is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. She has nine years' experience working with adults and young people, and she also offers counselling for couples. Joanne trained at Staffordshire University and holds additional postgraduate qualifications related to advocacy and supervision.
She works in a person-centred way, placing the client's concerns at the centre of the conversation. That means she listens closely and follows what matters most to the person in the room. Joanne blends this with solution-focused ideas and attachment-informed thinking to help people spot small, practical changes they can try between sessions.
Joanne has substantial experience in trauma work, including supporting survivors of sexual and domestic violence. She completed EMDR training in 2024 and has worked as an Independent Sexual Violence Advisor alongside roles in a mental health helpline and an employee assistance programme. These roles have exposed her to a wide range of mental health difficulties and life challenges.
Her practice addresses common and complex concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, addictions, and difficulties with self-esteem. She also works with matters like attachment difficulties, body image, and communication problems. Joanne frames therapy as a collaborative effort to explore concerns and try practical steps that suit each person's life.
Joanne is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often abbreviated as BACP. She follows the BACP ethical framework and keeps clear professional boundaries while working with clients.
How Joanne's approaches can work online
Joanne uses person-centred and attachment-informed approaches to help people feel heard and understood. Person-centred counselling focuses on the client's priorities and uses listening and reflection to guide conversations, which can help with stress, relationship concerns and self-esteem. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help with trust, intimacy and connection difficulties.She also draws on trauma-focused methods, including EMDR, for people who have experienced traumatic events. Trauma-focused work aims to reduce the intensity of distressing memories and symptoms so daily life becomes easier to manage. Deciding which approach to use is a joint process - the therapist and client work together to pick methods that fit the person's needs and goals.
Online therapy can make it simpler to fit sessions into busy lives, for example by reducing travel time and allowing appointments during a lunch break or between commitments. Some formats may suit quieter check-ins while others let people use video when they prefer face-to-face contact. The biography does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking to find what will fit best.
