About Joanne
Joanne Saulter is a counsellor who uses a person-centred, integrative way of working. She focuses on what each person brings to sessions and supports them to find practical ways forward. Joanne holds BACP membership which reflects her professional standing in the UK.
She works in English and draws on her faith when clients want that included. Joanne aims to make therapy understandable and useful for people feeling overwhelmed. She helps with stress, anxiety, depression and the effects of trauma and abuse.
Background and approach
She also offers support around parenting pressures, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and long-term conditions such as bipolar or ADHD. Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions involve talking through current problems, noticing patterns, and trying new ways of coping.
She uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy alongside attachment-focused thinking and emotionally-focused ideas. Joanne has five years of practice experience and has worked with adults and young people. She has particular experience supporting carers and adults with autism.
She aims to listen without judgement and to help people set realistic, manageable goals for change. When faith matters to a client, Joanne can bring a Christian perspective into sessions if the client requests it. She makes sure this is guided by the person’s own values and never imposed.
Sessions are intended to be respectful, paced to the individual, and focused on what the client wants to achieve.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Joanne will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and together they will decide which methods to try. The process is collaborative and may combine elements from different approaches as needed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging let people pace conversations over time and fit therapy around work or caregiving commitments. These options make it simpler to access therapists and to keep continuity in care when life is busy.
