About Joanne

Joanne Rothery is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, low self-esteem and major life changes. She works with grief, sleeping difficulties, anger and career strain, and offers support around bipolar and compassion fatigue. Joanne aims to be a calm, accepting presence so clients do not feel they must cope alone.

Joanne practises from a person-centred perspective, putting the client at the heart of each session. She listens without judgment and makes space for whatever a person brings, whether painful or hopeful. That approach is blended with practical tools drawn from cognitive behavioural ideas and trauma-focused work when helpful.

Sessions often focus on building confidence, managing strong emotions, and finding small changes that make life feel steadier. Joanne talks things through with clients and helps them try different ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and improve sleep. She also supports people working through addictive behaviours and the effects of past abuse.

Joanne has four years of experience and holds NCPS as a credential. She draws on her own lived experience of stress and trauma to inform how she listens and responds. Her style is calm, respectful and grounded in compassion.

Joanne works from the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. People using her service complete a short matching questionnaire to begin, and sessions are scheduled according to the platform process and therapist availability.

How Joanne's approaches translate to online work

Joanne offers a person-centred approach that focuses on listening, acceptance and responding to whatever a person brings. This approach helps people feel heard and understood, and it often suits those needing emotional support while dealing with life transitions.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, helps by identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behaviour changes. It can be useful for anxiety, sleep problems and mood management through clear, step-by-step exercises.

Trauma-focused work concentrates on understanding and reducing the ongoing impact of past hurt. It aims to help people manage strong emotions and build steadier day-to-day coping over time.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Joanne will discuss goals and preferences and try different ways of working to find what fits best. That process is collaborative and revisited as needs change.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, often use online work to combine practical tools with reflective listening so therapy can fit around everyday routines.
