About Jo Cassen Counselling
Who I Am:
Hello
I am Jo, an integrative counsellor and registered member of the BACP offering affordable therapy in person and online. Walking therapy is also available depending on the weather and location.
My approach to therapy is to bring my whole, genuine self into our sessions. By doing so, we can build a therapeutic relationship rooted in equality, respect, and trust.
Having spent many hours in personal therapy myself, I understand how daunting it can be to start this journey and to find the right counsellor. Something has brought you here, and I’d be curious to know what that is. If you feel ready to share more, you’re very welcome to get in touch for a free 30-minute introductory chat. I aim to offer empathy, understanding, and a non-judgemental space, so that your experience of therapy feels safe, supportive, and genuine.
Effective therapy needs connection .
Could that be us ?
How I work:
As an integrative counsellor, I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches tailored to your individual needs. This allows us to explore your past and present, as well as any future goals you may have.
The aim of therapy is to build greater self-awareness and support meaningful change especially in areas where you may feel stuck or unsure how to move forward. As our therapeutic relationship develops, we’ll work together to identify and explore the issues that may feel difficult to face alone.
Throughout our work, I will always strive to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel genuinely seen and heard.
Life brings many challenges, and while no two experiences are the same, I believe my own journey helps me better understand and connect with my clients. This lived experience enables me to offer empathy in a natural and authentic way.
Some of the areas I have personal experience with include:
- Loss, grief, and bereavement
- Menopause
- Workplace bullying
- Relationship breakdown
- Family addiction
- Anxiety and overthinking
- Separation & Divorce
- Empty nest syndrome
- Parenting issues
What happens next ?
If you would like a free 30-minute
introductory meeting, please get in touch and we can arrange it. This will be a relaxed conversation to see if we are a good fit, because feeling comfortable and connected is an important first step.
If you decide to continue, our first session will include sharing some personal and health details for my records. We will also create an agreement that works for both of us and meets any legal requirements to keep our work together safe and professional.
I know from my own experience of being in therapy that reaching out can feel daunting. Please be assured that I will guide you through each stage with care and understanding. I work with all clients equally and collaboratively, tailoring each session to suit your individual needs wherever possible.
