About Joanne
Joanne Maddison is a BACP psychotherapeutic counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She draws on Jungian ideas alongside other approaches to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or depression. Her style is practical and caring and she aims to make the first steps easier for anyone unsure about therapy.
Joanne has three years of professional experience and a background in healthcare. That experience informs her interest in life changes such as pregnancy and early parenthood, and in the emotional effects of illness and caregiving.
Background and approach
She offers straightforward support for career worries, sleep disruption, and coping with loss. Her sessions explore both past patterns and present day experience. Conversations are tailored to each person, so practical techniques might sit alongside deeper reflective work.
Joanne pays attention to how the body and emotions interact, and how habits of relating influence current problems. Typical concerns she helps with include communication problems, codependency, abandonment, and family of origin issues. She also works with people facing chronic pain, cancer-related worries, or the stresses of caregiving.
The aim is to help people build clearer choices and healthier routines. Joanne offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
People interested in working together begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then arranging a schedule that suits them.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Jungian Therapy looks at symbols, dreams and life stories to help people understand recurring patterns and meaning in their lives. It can be helpful for grief, emptiness and identity questions where a deeper sense of purpose or narrative is wanted.Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the heart of the conversation and focuses on being listened to without judgement. This approach supports people coping with anxiety, low self-esteem and life transitions by building trust and self-understanding.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Joanne will discuss goals, try different ways of working, and decide together which mix of methods feels most useful. That collaborative process helps make online sessions feel tailored and focused on the client's priorities.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls suit fuller conversations and visual connection, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins or when typing helps someone express themselves. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or mobility challenges and to keep continuity between sessions.
