She also works with concerns such as addiction, trauma and domestic violence, communication and commitment issues, and divorce or separation.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Joanne will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then agree together which approaches to try. The process is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and body language. Phone sessions are handy when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, journalling between sessions or people who prefer writing. These options can make it easier to fit counselling around work, family life or health needs, while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
