About Jo
Jo Reidy is a counsellor with 15 years of professional experience based in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. Jo focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression and addictions, and she also supports those facing trauma, eating concerns and bipolar difficulties.
Jo creates a relaxed atmosphere where people can talk about what matters to them. She aims to reduce blame and shame in sessions so clients can think more clearly and make choices that fit their lives.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and paced to the client, not rushed. Her work draws on Jungian ideas about meaning and symbols alongside attachment-based and client-centred ways of working. Jo combines these with clearer, skills-focused tools from cognitive behavioural therapy when useful.
This mix suits people who want to understand patterns and also learn coping strategies. Jo often helps with relationship worries, intimacy issues and communication problems. She also supports people dealing with grief, parenting stress, career uncertainty and life transitions.
Additional focuses include body image, codependency and dissociation. People can expect straightforward language and steady support in sessions. Jo encourages collaboration about goals and pace.
She offers a calm, non-judgemental presence to help people find practical steps forward.

Online support
How Jo's approaches translate to online therapy
Jo blends Jungian Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy in ways that work well online. Jungian Therapy looks at symbols, dreams and personal meaning to help people make sense of repeated patterns and life choices; it can be useful for people seeking deeper understanding. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape how people connect now and can help with trust, intimacy and communication problems. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the heart of sessions, offering empathic listening and space to explore feelings without pressure.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt methods as progress is made. This is a collaborative process where the client helps shape the focus and pace.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging, giving options for different needs. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier for short check-ins. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer written reflection or want flexibility around work and daily life. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule while keeping the work focused and consistent.
