About Joanne
Joanne Janvier is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem concerns, and relationship or intimacy-related issues. She also supports people coping with life changes, grief, addictions, career concerns, ADHD, bipolar and depression, and people dealing with caregiver strain. Joanne has a background in coaching and in addressing compassion fatigue and professional burnout.
She works in a conversational and supportive way. Sessions focus on understanding what matters to the client and on practical steps to make everyday life more manageable. Joanne draws on a mix of approaches to suit different needs and preferences rather than using a single fixed method.
Her registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, is included in her professional profile. Joanne brings 16 years of experience to her practice and aims to make first steps feel achievable for people who are unsure where to begin. She uses plain language in sessions and keeps plans straightforward.
Joanne often focuses on building coping skills and clearer thinking patterns, and on strengthening how people relate to themselves and others. She helps set small goals that fit into everyday routines and reviews progress with the client. This makes it easier to notice change over time.
Sessions are conversational and guided by the client’s priorities. Joanne offers a calm and non-judgemental space for people to talk through painful experiences and to try different strategies for moving forward.

How Joanne uses therapeutic approaches in online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-led action. It is useful for people struggling with anxiety, low mood, or motivation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and supports practical changes such as breaking down overwhelming problems into small steps. It is often used for anxiety, stress and depression.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to current concerns, goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that suit the person. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as progress is reviewed.
The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm which options are currently offered before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, letting sessions happen during a lunch break, or making it easier to link therapy with day-to-day routines. Remote work also allows the therapist to use worksheets, tracking tools and short practical exercises between sessions to support steady progress.
