Jo
Therapist
Jo is great, so far she has really helped me. Made me really think about why I have certain behavioural patterns and how I can take positive changes so that I do t keep repeating them. Really feel I have come a long way so far More...

The time I have spent in sessions with Jo has been absolutely invaluable. I was feeling incredibly overwhelmed with life, work, motherhood and also struggling to come to terms with the breakdown of a close family relationship. Jo created a calm, unprejudiced and open space for me each week where I became increasingly comfortable sharing what I needed to in order to work through and try to make some sense of how I was feeling and how to help myself. The homework Jo gave me was really helpful in bridging the gap between sessions, and has also taught me some great coping mechanisms. I especially loved journalling and will continue to do this for myself. If you are looking for a therapist, I would highly recommend engaging Jo. I would definitely go back to her in the future if things were getting on top of me again. More...

I was very nervous starting counselling, but Jo made me feel comfortable and safe. My mental health has improved a lot since I started seeing her. She is empathetic, objective and a great listener and I would highly recommend. More...

Jo has been a lighthouse in a stormy period for me. Patient, understanding and always says things that make me think “why didn’t I think of that? ” Would recommend her services to anyone seeking some guidance or who is facing a tricky time in their life. More...

Chloe
I had never had therapy before and didn't know what to expect. I was suffering from overwhelming anxiety and it had started affecting my work and personal life.
I met Jo in person first of all and went online after I returned to work full time. Immediately she put me at ease with her calm, kind and approachable nature. By talking about my anxiety on the surface we were able to unlock links to my childhood trauma which I had pushed down and not spoken about with anyone before. Jo helped me realise that I am not my past and now life feels so much lighter, I'm back to work and going out socially again. I highly recommend Jo. Thank you so much.
