Jo Jorgensen, BACP

Jo Jorgensen is a BACP-registered counsellor with four years of professional practice in the United Kingdom. She focuses on relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, depression, and the challenges people face during big life changes. Jo approaches each person with respect, sensitivity and a compassionate attitude. She aims to tailor conversations and plans to suit individual needs and goals.

Clients can expect straightforward, calm sessions where the therapist listens first and helps map practical next steps. Jo uses conversational work to gently look at patterns in relationships and feelings that contribute to pain and stuckness. She also supports people processing loss, whether that is bereavement, separation, or other endings.

Her background includes work with people experiencing identity and LGBT-related concerns, and with issues such as attachment and abandonment. Jo brings elements from client-centred practice and therapies that focus on thoughts, emotions and past experiences when they seem most helpful.

Sessions aim to help people untangle difficult emotions and build clearer ways of coping. Jo encourages clients to notice small changes and practical actions that make everyday life easier. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and emphasises gradual steps toward clearer thinking and improved wellbeing.

To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability. The session rhythm and goals are set together and reviewed as work progresses.

How Jo's approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of the session. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps clients find their own direction, which can suit relationship and identity concerns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns, helpful for depression and coping with change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jo discusses what feels most useful and tries different ways of working together to match a client's needs, goals and preferences. This is done collaboratively so the plan can change as things progress.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins when needed. Some formats also let people choose whether to use video, audio or shorter calls, which helps match practical needs like quieter surroundings or shorter breaks during the day.
