About me
Hello, I am Jo Rose. It may have taken some time to reach the point of seeking support, and now you are looking for the right person to help. Below is a brief overview of how I work. If you have any questions, or there is something I have not covered, please email me here, and I will respond as soon as possible.
I am here to provide a safe, supportive and nurturing space to reflect, explore, and express thoughts, feelings and behaviours. This process often leads to valuable insights and personal growth. As an integrative psychotherapist, I utilise a range of therapeutic approaches to tailor sessions to each person’s unique needs.
I have extensive experience of working with children, adolescents, parents, and adults, addressing a wide range of challenges and dilemmas.
When working with young people, I often incorporate creative approaches to facilitate access to thoughts and emotions. Adolescents benefit from a non-judgemental environment in which to explore the issues affecting them during this pivotal stage of life.
I support parents in navigating the challenges of parenthood by untangling complex dynamics and communication patterns while examining how one’s own upbringing influences current parenting styles. This process ultimately fosters a healthier family environment.
With adults, I use my training and experience to explore how past events, particularly those from childhood, shape current life. This understanding guides meaningful and positive change.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a master’s in psychotherapy and am accredited with both UKCP and BACP.
I have had many years of extensive training and professional experience working with diverse backgrounds, a variety of difficulties, a multitude of ages, in an assortment of settings including private practice.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
