Joanne Kevan
Compassionate integrative counselling focused on healing
About Joanne
Joanne Kevan works with people facing stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship strain and the after-effects of trauma and abuse. She also supports those dealing with grief, parenting pressures, workplace strain, sleep problems and questions about intimacy. Joanne notes experience with ADHD, compassion fatigue and a range of additional concerns such as obsessive behaviours and postpartum depression.
Joanne uses an integrative counselling style that blends different evidence-based techniques to fit each person.
Background and approach
She aims to create a calm space where people can speak freely and be heard without judgment. Sessions focus on finding what lies at the core of a problem while building practical ways to cope day to day. Her practice favours clear, straightforward conversation.
Joanne helps clients name feelings, notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. She offers both short-term focused work and longer explorations, depending on what a person needs. Joanne holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She has three years of professional experience working with adults in the United Kingdom and accepts people from other countries who wish to work online in English. Starting therapy with Joanne is described as a step-by-step process: a short matching questionnaire, then scheduling sessions that suit the client.
Fees vary by location and are managed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How talk therapy and practical techniques work online
Joanne draws on integrative counselling that mixes evidence-based therapeutic techniques to suit the person. One common method is short-term, goal-focused work that helps people set clear aims and learn practical skills for stress, anxiety and low mood. Another helpful approach is trauma-informed talking therapy that focuses on stabilising distress, processing difficult memories at a safe pace and restoring daily routines.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Joanne works collaboratively to discover what fits best for each client, taking into account their goals, preferences and how they respond in early sessions. Together the therapist and client try techniques and refine the plan as needed.
Online therapy with Joanne uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversations when seeing facial cues matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging work well for regular brief support and for people who prefer typed communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping continuity of care with a registered or accredited professional.
