About Joanne
Joanne Saulter is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress and depression. She works in a calm, person-centred way and aims to help people feel heard and respected. Joanne brings five years of practice to each session and uses clear, practical ways to help people move forward.
She believes people know their lives best and aims to explore feelings alongside each person. That might mean talking through past events that still cause pain.
Background and approach
It might mean setting small, realistic goals for day-to-day life. Sessions are collaborative, gentle and paced to the individual. Joanne is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
She also integrates a faith perspective when clients want that, and always follows the client’s lead on faith matters. This means faith is used only when it feels relevant to the person she is working with. Her background includes work with carers and adults on the autism spectrum, and she is experienced supporting young people as well as adults.
Practical skills, reflective conversation and emotion-focused methods are all part of her approach. People come to Joanne for many reasons - relationship strain, parenting pressure, grief, life changes, or difficulty managing mood and attention. She listens, helps identify small steps, and supports people as they try new ways of coping.

Online support
Finding the right way to work is part of the therapeutic process. Joanne will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and help choose approaches that fit. Planning is collaborative so sessions can adapt as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different situations. Video is useful for a full conversation with visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text messaging suit brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel, and give flexibility in how people prefer to communicate.
