About Joanne
Joanne Ramshaw is a counsellor who uses a warm, honest and non-judgemental approach. She focuses on helping people who are feeling stressed, anxious or low in self-esteem. Joanne also supports those facing grief, loss and major life changes.
With five years of practice, she draws on a handful of therapeutic styles to tailor sessions to each person. Joanne often blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy when helping people who struggle with negative thoughts and avoidance.
Background and approach
She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centred ideas to explore how past relationships affect current feelings. Sessions are conversational and practical. Joanne helps people name problems, try new ways of responding, and notice what matters most to them.
She works at a steady pace so people can build small, achievable changes over time. Her background includes work supporting people facing health challenges, caregiving stress, and issues around adoption and attachment. She has experience with concerns such as addiction, trauma and abuse, chronic illness, and separation or divorce.
This wider experience helps when problems overlap or feel complicated. Joanne is registered with BACP and NCPS. She works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English.
