About Joanne
Joanne Janvier is a counsellor who helps people with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and coping with life changes. She works with issues such as trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and challenges linked to work and career. Her practice also includes support for ADHD, bipolar disorder and depression. Joanne's profile notes a focus on men's wellbeing among other areas.
Joanne uses straightforward conversations to find practical steps that fit each person's life. She listens without judgement and encourages clients to say what matters most. Sessions aim to build motivation, confidence and clearer choices rather than relying on jargon.
Her background includes 16 years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often shown as BACP. That experience comes from work in the United Kingdom where she has helped people with compassion fatigue and anxiety, among other concerns.
Joanne draws on several therapy approaches when appropriate, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, client-centred practice, cognitive behavioural techniques and elements of dialectical behaviour therapy. She adapts methods to suit each person's needs and goals.
Practical support and coaching are part of her offering for people facing career decisions, parenting strain, blended family issues and long-term health challenges. Joanne encourages small steps that build confidence over time.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Joanne commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centred methods to guide her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on identifying values and taking meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. Client-centred practice emphasises listening, empathy and adapting sessions around the person’s pace and priorities.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Joanne will work collaboratively to decide which methods match a person's aims, preferences and symptoms. That choice may change over time as goals shift and new priorities emerge.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people who prefer not to use video or who need a simpler way to schedule around work or caregiving commitments. Registered or accredited professionals can combine conversational work, practical exercises and coaching tools in remote sessions to keep progress moving forward.
