About me

Hello. I’m Joe, and I am a trauma-informed therapist offering a safe, secure, and non-judgemental space where you can begin to explore and understand your experiences at your own pace.

I specialise in working with domestic abuse, childhood trauma, unresolved issues from early life, and relationship difficulties. I also support adults living with neurological conditions, helping you navigate the emotional and practical challenges these can bring, including coping with work, chronic pain, fatigue, and the impact this can have on relationships.

You may find yourself struggling to manage your emotions in relationships or feeling as though your past is shaping your present in ways you don’t fully understand. If this resonates with you, please know that change is possible. Together, we can begin to make sense of your experiences and work towards a future that feels more manageable and hopeful. 

I understand that trauma affects both the mind and the body. My approach is gentle, collaborative, and led by you. We will go at a pace that feels safe, and you will always remain in control of our sessions. My aim is to help you feel more grounded, more secure, and better equipped to move through the world with a greater sense of safety. 

I offer sessions from a calm and private therapy room in St Helier, as well as online therapy for those who prefer the flexibility, privacy, or accessibility of working remotely. Online sessions can be particularly helpful if you have mobility needs, disabilities, or challenges with travel or parking.

Reaching out can feel like a big step, but you don’t have to face things alone. I’m here to support you.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a BACP Registered therapist. My approach is integrative and trauma-informed, drawing on a range of evidence-based approaches to support healing, emotional regulation, and personal growth. I also hold a Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. 

I am committed to ongoing professional development and receive regular clinical supervision to ensure my work remains safe, ethical, and effective.

I currently work for two charities and specialise in sexual trauma and violence, and supporting clients with neurological disorders. I also have lived experience and have gone through the challenges of being newly diagnosed, grieving for the old version of yourself and finding the new you. 

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
