Therapeutic approaches and online support
Joanne Jones offers several evidence-informed approaches tailored to trauma and relationship work. Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of the process and focuses on empathy, respect, and the client’s own pace of exploration; it is useful for concerns such as low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that supports the processing of distressing memories and can be helpful for people who have experienced sexual or domestic violence. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of relating and early connection experiences to help address relationship difficulties, attachment issues, abandonment, and intimacy concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Joanne works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts the plan as therapy progresses so clients feel involved in decisions about their care.
Online therapy with Joanne is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and circumstances. These remote options make it easier to access registered professionals from different locations, accommodate busy or changing lives, and maintain continuity of support when meeting in person is not possible.
