Joanne Walker (MNCS)

Whatever you’re going through, being seen and heard by another makes a difference. I’m an Integrative counsellor and pychotherapist, offering a supportive, non-judgmental and collaborative space to talk things over. Counselling helps with many problems whether they are relational, emotional or caused by trauma. At times we can all struggle with our circumstances and mental health. Past events and challenges in the present negatively impact our quality of life. Coping mechanisms often start to fail or become unhelpful. Psychotherapy allows some time and space to focus on your concerns, providing insight and clarity. It’s an opportunity for honest open communication, without the fear of judgement and repercussions. This self-exploration tends to aid growth and healing, ultimately resulting in change and acceptance. I don’t diagnose you or tell you what to do, rather support you with whatever it is you wish to bring.
I’m a graduate Integrative Counsellor, with a National Open College Network Counselling Skills Certificate (2010) and a BA (Hons) Counselling Studies Degree (2013). I have past experience in mental health, general practice and domestic violence settings. I can offer short and long-term counselling. I’m a member of The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society and The National Council of Psychotherapists.
A collaborative and understanding therapeutic relationship can really benefit you, so do get in touch for an initial consultation.
I look forward to hearing from you.
