About Jo
Jo Almond is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, with four years of professional experience. She works with stress and anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, and executive and professional coaching.
Jo focuses on practical, person-led conversations. She listens to what matters and helps people notice patterns that get in the way. Sessions are straightforward and paced to what each person can manage.
Her approach draws on client-centred work and trauma-focused methods alongside mindfulness and somatic practices. That means Jo aims to follow the client's lead, pay attention to body-based reactions, and use grounding or breathing exercises when helpful. These methods are often used with issues such as anxiety, stress, sleep difficulties and the after-effects of traumatic events.
She brings attention to differences of identity, disability and diagnosis, and makes space for those topics in sessions. Jo also supports people dealing with grief, career strain, addiction concerns, ADHD and relationship tensions. Additional areas she has worked with include adoption and foster care, ageing and geriatric issues, autism and attachment concerns.
People meet Jo for coaching around work and professional stress as well as for therapy about long-standing patterns like codependency, commitment or communication difficulties. Her style is practical and direct, with steps to try between sessions.
To begin, clients use the platform's matching process and schedule an initial session. Jo works in English and does not take international clients at this time.
Approaches used in online sessions
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. The counsellor offers reflective listening and helps people name feelings and choose next steps. Mindfulness therapy uses simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and support calmer thinking during stress or anxiety.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jo will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and comfort. That choice can change over time as the client notices what helps and what does not.
Confirm the session formats before booking to know how meetings are run. Many people find online sessions fit into work breaks or busy days and reduce travel time. Some formats also make it easier to use quieter, shorter check-ins or to avoid being on camera when that helps. If you want to know the exact ways Jo offers sessions, check the current options before you schedule.
