Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Joanna (Jo) Walker works from an integrative perspective and commonly draws on humanistic, psychodynamic and behavioural approaches. Humanistic therapy focuses on building a compassionate, client-centred relationship and supporting personal growth and self-understanding - it can be helpful for low self-esteem, life transitions and relationship concerns. Psychodynamic work explores patterns that arise from past experiences and unconscious processes to make sense of recurring emotional themes - this can support people dealing with trauma, long-standing relational patterns or complex emotional responses. Behavioural techniques focus on practical strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and actions, offering tools for managing symptoms of anxiety, mood difficulties and everyday coping challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Joanna collaborates with each person to identify what feels most useful. Together they review goals, try different methods when needed and adjust the plan based on how therapy is progressing, so the work stays aligned with the client’s needs and preferences.

Online therapy with Joanna is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for people with busy schedules or those living at a distance. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and access registered professionals from different locations while tailoring session formats to what works best for the individual.
