Hi, I’m Jo. I’m an integrative therapist with over two decades of experience supporting young people, adults, and families. I understand that taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting, and my goal is to make that process as comfortable and supportive as possible. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy — we can take that journey together. My aim is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace, without pressure or judgment.

I work with a wide range of difficulties including anxiety, low mood, trauma, attachment issues, loss, family or relationship challenges, and addiction. My approach is relational, which means I believe meaningful therapy begins with genuine human connection. Together, we will build a trusting and collaborative relationship where you can feel safe enough to explore what’s been holding you back and begin to find your own way forward.

As an integrative therapist, I draw on a variety of models and techniques depending on your needs. These include person-centred therapy, CBT, somatic approaches, Transactional Analysis, and trauma-informed methods. I also have specialist training in therapeutic parenting, addiction, and attachment-focused therapy, allowing me to work sensitively with complex emotional experiences. My background includes extensive experience within adult and children’s mental health services, education, and addiction services. I am currently completing my MSc in Integrative Psychotherapy and continue to expand my practice through advanced professional training. Whatever has brought you to therapy, my focus is on helping you feel supported, understood, and empowered to create lasting change.
