About Joanne
Joanne (Jo) Warren is a counsellor and an Accredited Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with 12 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strains, anger, self-esteem and related difficulties.
Jo listens closely to how people describe their situation and looks at concerns from the client's point of view. She aims to help people notice the choices they have and to develop practical ways of coping. Sessions may include talking things through, learning skills, and planning small changes to test out in daily life.
Her practice includes Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), hypnotherapy and mindfulness approaches. EMDR is offered as a way to work with memories and trauma-related distress. CBT and mindfulness tools are used to manage thoughts, mood and stress in everyday situations.
Jo is a professional counsellor who holds BACP accreditation. She also reports EMDR practice and membership of the EMDR Association UK and Ireland in her background. Her approach is straightforward and focused on what a person wants to change.
People looking for help with anger, relationship strain, or anxiety will find practical conversation and strategies here. Before booking it is sensible to confirm the current session options and any specific arrangements that suit the individual's needs.
How sessions work
How Jo uses therapeutic approaches online
Jo works with a mix of approaches that translate to conversations and practical exercises you can use between sessions. Client-Centred Therapy means the focus is on the person's own experience; the counsellor listens and helps clarify what matters and what goals to try for. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) provides straightforward tools to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which can help with anger, anxiety and mood. EMDR is offered as a way to work with distressing memories and the reactions those memories trigger in daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. That helps decide whether a conversation-focused route, CBT skill-building, or EMDR sessions are the best way forward for the individual's concern.
Session arrangements are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed and remove travel time. It also makes it possible to practice skills between meetings and bring real-life examples to the session for immediate discussion.
