Integrative and Person-Centered Online Support

Joanne commonly draws on person-centered counselling and integrative techniques in her online work. The person-centered approach focuses on empathetic listening and helping people explore their own values and choices - it can be particularly helpful for relationship concerns, grief and rebuilding self-worth. Integrative counselling means she blends methods from different evidence-based techniques to suit the individual, adapting tools and styles to address issues like communication problems, attachment concerns and workplace stress.

Her nutrition background also informs conversations about how lifestyle and physical health can affect mood and energy, so dietary considerations may be included where relevant. Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process; Joanne works collaboratively with each person and with registered professionals when appropriate to identify what fits best with the client’s needs, goals and preferences.

Online therapy lets people access consistent care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. These options increase flexibility for those juggling work, family or living abroad, and make it easier to continue therapy through life changes or when in-person visits are not practical. Registered professionals and therapists can tailor the format and frequency of sessions to match each client’s routine and priorities.
