Online support
How Jo’s approaches translate to online therapy
Hypnotherapy is a way of using guided relaxation and focused attention to help people change habits, manage stress and work through difficult memories. It can be helpful for sleep problems, anxiety, and certain unwanted behaviours when used alongside talking therapy.Client-Centred Therapy centres on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. This approach helps people feel heard and clarifies their own goals before deciding on next steps.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It often involves short exercises and clear strategies that people can try between sessions to notice real differences in daily life.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jo will talk through goals and preferences and suggest which methods might help most. Together they decide what to try and review progress as they go.
Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video works well for a fuller conversation, phone helps when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits quick check-ins or brief coaching between sessions. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
