About Me

People come to psychotherapy for all kinds of different reasons. Perhaps a particular issue is making life very difficult, or maybe you have more general feelings of discontentment, unease or unhappiness that you want to address. One-to-one psychotherapy can help by providing a safe, therapeutic space in which you feel able to explore and express difficult thoughts, feelings and memories. This process of deep exploration helps you to grow and develop in areas that have previously felt stuck, painful or have been blocked out.

Sometimes the problems that we encounter in life cannot be quickly solved or resolved, but by engaging in a process of inner growth, we can learn to live fully and thrive amongst the difficulties that we find ourselves in. Long-term therapy offers the environment, support and space to allow this process to happen at depth.

Joe is an integrative psychotherapist offering long-term therapy for individuals. His approach is informed by humanistic, Jungian and psychodynamic theories and methods. Joe has an MA in Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapy from the Bath Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy and has previously volunteered at Cruse Bereavement Care as a bereavement counsellor

Special Interests

Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.

Death and loss can be a great source of suffering that can at times feel insurmountable. Talking therapies can be vital in helping you find a space where you are able to get in touch with and express your grief. It can also help with processing difficult and complicated losses that may either have been recent or from the past.
I specialise in long-term online psychotherapy work at depth.
Relationships are central to almost every aspect of life. Disturbances in relationships can be very painful and carry other repercussions that negatively impact our lives in all sorts of different ways. The type of psychotherapy I practice is particularly suited to helping you understand how you relate to others, using the therapy relationship as a vehicle for both reflection and growth.
Sexuality is fundamental to our human nature and the way in which we relate to the world. Difficulties and blocks to expressing sexuality in rewarding ways can be a huge source of suffering and represent a great loss of potential vitality, joy and pleasure. Talking about these difficulties within a psychotherapy process can help you understand and work through any difficulties or blocks you might be facing.
