About Jo
Jo Jorgensen is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and helps people who are facing relationship strain, grief, depression and the aftermath of trauma and abuse. She aims to meet people with respect, sensitivity and compassion as they start therapy.
Jo adapts conversations and plans to fit each person’s situation. She listens for what matters most and uses that to guide practical steps forward.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear goals such as improving communication, managing distressing memories, or coping with major life changes. Her work often addresses problems like attachment and abandonment worries, body image, control issues, and isolation. Jo also supports people dealing with separation, infidelity, domestic violence and end-of-life concerns.
She is comfortable working with LGBT issues and gender dysphoria as part of that broader practice. Jo draws on several recognised approaches including client-centred methods, cognitive behavioural ideas and trauma-focused work. She explains tools plainly and helps people try them between sessions.
Therapy usually involves short-term goals and continued review so plans can change if needed. People who come to Jo tend to want a calm, practical space to talk things through. She emphasises partnership in the work and helps people build skills they can use outside sessions.

How Jo's approaches work online
Client-centred therapy puts your experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens and follows what you say, helping you clarify your priorities and make choices that feel right. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going and introduces practical exercises to change them. Trauma-focused work concentrates on reducing the hold that painful memories and reactions have on day-to-day life and uses structured techniques to do that.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jo will discuss options with each person and decide together which methods fit best. That collaboration means plans can change as needs or goals shift over time.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking to know what is offered. Online therapy can make it easier to match sessions to a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, or fitting appointments into a work break. It can also make it easier for people who are abroad to work with a UK-based counsellor. Registered and accredited professionals, including therapists, use these approaches to help clients access consistent support regardless of location.
