Originally trained as a Clinical Counsellor in the 1980s, Joanna combined her counselling career with her roles as business woman and mother until 2001 when she found herself in a position to devote herself full time to the development of effective therapies to help combat the negative emotional effects we can suffer in our everyday lives. She is a married mother of three adult sons.
'I offer effective therapy and coping strategies as a result
of 25 years of experience, learning and on-going training.
I offer help at the times we need it most and which can then be used throughout our lives.
I have found hypnotherapy to be the perfect partner to traditional counselling as it offers a solution based therapy within an acceptable amount of time.
I feel that part of my role is to help break down the belief that seeking help is a last resort and only suitable for 'other people'.
One of the true problems in life is that all too often we do not ask for the help we need and continue to suffer until things become unbearable.
It does not have to be that way.
I have reached the conclusion, after many years of not only seeing the pain we endure but also having been part of that pain that;
'Happiness is not a destination...It's the journey'
(Buddha)
I BELIEVE IN SOLUTION BASED THERAPY
MY EMPHASIS IS ON DEALING WITH CURRENT PROBLEMS BY LEARNING NEW SKILLS FOR YOUR FUTURE WELLBEING
AND KEEPING THERAPY BRIEF AND FOCUSED.
THE SKILLS YOU LEARN NOW WILL BE WITH YOU
FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE ""
