About Joanne

Joanne Rankin is a UK-based counsellor with eight years of professional practice supporting adults through complex emotional challenges. She is registered with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) and holds an MSc in Psychology, a BA (Hons) and a Level 5 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling - qualifications that reflect advanced training in psychological theory and practical counselling skills.

Joanne works with people experiencing trauma and abuse, grief and loss, sleep difficulties and bipolar disorder, and she brings additional focus to issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, body image, chronic illness and disability, codependency, and family conflict. She also offers executive and professional coaching to help clients manage stress, improve work-life balance and navigate career transitions.

Her practice is integrative and trauma-informed, drawing on multiple therapeutic models to tailor support to each person’s needs. Joanne creates a warm, nonjudgmental space for exploration, listening closely and walking alongside clients as they pursue clarity, healing and practical change. She approaches therapy collaboratively and aims to empower people to take the steps they need when they are ready to reach out.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice their thoughts and feelings without being controlled by them, then commit to actions that align with their values - it can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, and patterns that hold people back. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns of connecting and can support work on abandonment, attachment issues and relationship difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client’s own experience, offering empathy and respect so individuals can find their own solutions and build confidence in facing personal challenges.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Joanne works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan as progress and circumstances change.

Online therapy delivers these approaches through flexible formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to access support from home or work. Licensed professionals can use these options to maintain continuity of care and adapt sessions to what works best for each client.
