Joanne is passionate about supporting couples dealing with long-standing relationship issues to develop new, positive ways of relating and practical relationship skills. She listens to her clients’ needs in a caring, non-judgemental way and finds it rewarding to see couples grow and change in positive ways.
Alongside couples counselling, Joanne has experience supporting clients with depression and anxiety, anger management, narcissism, pre-marriage issues, family therapy, trauma, autism, pain management, sexual difficulties and porn addiction. These challenges can and often do affect couples, so it’s important to understand how they may have shaped a relationship.
Joanne has been in private practice for 12 years. Before that, she worked at a family and relationship agency that focused on couples therapy, and she is also trained in family mediation, conflict management and hypnosis. She brings this broad experience to our psychology team.
