About

Joanne Lilley is a UK-licensed person-centred therapist with 16 years of professional experience. She offers therapy in English and works with young people, adults and couples, with particular experience supporting teenagers and couples facing personal and relationship difficulties.

Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, family and parenting issues, self-esteem and confidence, ADHD, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related problems, trauma and abuse, grief, sleeping difficulties, anger, career-related stress, bipolar disorder, depression, and coping with life changes. She also addresses motivation, phobias, family conflict, emotional healing, and personal development.

Joanne adapts conversations and treatment plans to suit each person’s particular needs, and she aims to provide respectful, sensitive and compassionate care. She holds a BSc (Hons) in Psychology and a BA (Hons) in Person-Centred Counselling, and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP).

She is not qualified to provide formal diagnoses, so anyone seeking a diagnosis is advised to consult their doctor or general practitioner. Taking the first step toward therapy can take courage, and Joanne encourages prospective clients to view her schedule and book a session time that suits them - in many cases a first conversation can be arranged within a few hours.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?


Many people ask whether remote therapy can really help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or adapting to life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.

A major benefit is flexibility - you can choose the format that best suits your needs, whether that is a video session, a phone call, live chat or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to engage in ongoing work when travel or scheduling would otherwise be a barrier.

All therapists involved are licensed professionals, and if you decide you would prefer a different fit you may switch to another therapist at any time. Online therapy offers practical access and varied contact options while maintaining the professional support people seek for common mental health and relationship concerns.
