Joanne | Therapeutic Counsellor
Counselling Stanford Le Hope
Welcome to my profile and thank you for taking the time to get to know me a little and find out more about how I can help you. I work with people who are not enjoying life, who perhaps put on a smile for others but are not feeling happy inside. They may feel aware of what they want to work on in therapy, or they may feel unsure of where to start.Quite often there is a constant internal monologue which makes it difficult to switch off or sleep restfully, and very often these thoughts are quite negative. Over time it becomes exhausting going about daily activities, and you may find it difficult to go out and may even want to stop socialising with friends and family.
You may not like yourself very much. You may be a people pleaser who does not know how to say 'no'. You may not feel very positive when thinking about your future. Your life may not be where you would like it to be or you may have experienced a life event which has left you feeling lost and unsure how to move forward.
If you recognise any or all of the feelings above, I can help you.
I have successfully helped many people find a way past those feelings, quieten their minds, and find peace and happiness in their lives. I can help you improve the relationship you have with yourself, as well as those around you. Imagine how different your life could look if you were not carrying those thoughts and feelings around every day. Having more energy, focus and enthusiasm for the things you enjoy. Wanting to spend time with your friends and family. Looking forward to your future and having a clearer mindset about how to get to where you want to be.
I have been through my own counselling journey and understand how daunting it can be, especially when taking these first steps. I also understand how different life can be on the other side of this process and feel privileged being able to help others improve their lives too.
Get in touch if you would like me to help you start living the life you want.
Online therapy
I offer clients the choice between telephone and online therapy. Online therapy is available via zoom or whatsapp. I work in a secure and private room, using headphones, so client's will not be at risk of being overheard and I encourage all clients to consider their location also so they are comfortable and can speak freely and confidentially.I understand therapy can be an expensive investment. I therefore work with clients for either an agreed number of sessions or open ended (with regular reviews) based on your preference. Some clients prefer their sessions to be on the same day and time each week, others may require flexibility due to other committments. If you have a preferred day or time, contact me to discuss availability.
Qualifications and registrations
I hold a diploma in therapeutic counselling and continually expand on my knowledge with additional training in order to give my client's the best service possible.I am a member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP), am registered with the ICO (Information Commissioners Office) and am fully insured.
