Joanne Kevan, BACP

Joanne Kevan is a UK-licensed counsellor with three years of professional experience who works in an integrative, holistic way to support people through life’s difficulties. She uses integrative counselling to draw on a range of therapeutic methods tailored to each person’s needs, creating space for honest expression and emotional processing. Her practice aims to help people address stress and anxiety, relationship challenges, past trauma and abuse, low motivation, and issues with self-esteem by exploring the root causes that can hinder wellbeing.

Joanne prioritises a calm, nonjudgmental atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be shared openly. She focuses on helping clients uncover underlying patterns and supports them in developing strategies for healing and greater inner balance. Holding BACP credentials - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - she follows recognised professional standards and evidence-informed practice.

Recognising that beginning therapy takes courage, Joanne welcomes people who are taking that first step and offers practical, compassionate support as they move toward change. She provides services in English and is available to work with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally, adapting her approach to each individual’s situation and goals.

Integrative approaches and online support

Joanne works from an integrative counselling framework, combining techniques from multiple evidence-based approaches so sessions can be shaped around each person’s needs. This means she draws on methods that help explore thoughts, emotions and behaviours to address concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties.

She also uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in a focused way - selecting tools that research has shown to be helpful and adapting them to the client’s situation. These approaches can assist with processing trauma, improving coping skills, and developing more helpful patterns in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Joanne works collaboratively with clients to identify what fits best based on their goals, preferences and the issues they bring. Together they review progress and adjust the plan as needed.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for people balancing work, family or geographic distance. These formats make it easier to schedule regular sessions, maintain continuity of care, and access support from wherever the client is located, while allowing the therapeutic relationship to remain the primary focus.
