About Joanne

Joanne Saulter is a counsellor who focuses on thoughts and everyday habits to help people manage stress, anxiety and life changes. She uses person-centred values to create a warm, respectful space where clients can slow down and talk about what matters to them. Joanne holds BACP accreditation, which she lists as BACP, and brings five years of practice to her work.

She helps people who are dealing with depression, trauma, relationship strain and parenting pressures. She also supports those facing grief, chronic illness, career uncertainty, ADHD and issues with self-esteem. Her approach is practical – she listens and then works with each person to set realistic goals.

Joanne combines person-centred care with evidence-informed approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Sessions are collaborative: she asks questions, reflects what she hears and gently offers tools people can try between meetings. Faith can be included if the client wants it, and it is never imposed.

She has particular experience supporting adults with autism and carers, and she also works with young people and adults. Joanne aims to help clients understand patterns that keep them stuck and then build small, manageable changes into daily life.

Joanne practises in the United Kingdom and offers therapy in English. To start, a person completes the platform matching steps and then arranges sessions based on the therapist's scheduling options.

Approaches that guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them, and then take practical steps that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current connections. It can help people understand relationship difficulties and build more secure ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made over time if something isn’t helping.

The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose sessions that suit quieter or lower-bandwidth situations, or that fit around work and family routines.
