About Joanna 'Jo' Biegala

Joanna 'Jo' Biegala is an integrative counsellor registered with the BACP, the UK professional body for counselling and psychotherapy. With three years of experience, she offers a compassionate and honest space for people to explore, process and acknowledge thoughts, experiences and emotions without fear of judgement. Her practice has included supporting adults with complex mental health needs as well as people with general mental health concerns and wellbeing challenges, including anxiety, body image worries and depression. She also has experience working with children and young people aged 5 to 18.

Jo believes that counselling should be shaped by the individual, whether that means finding practical solutions or having an empathic place to express oneself. She adopts a collaborative stance, empowering each person to lead the therapeutic process and remain in control of the direction it takes. Her integrative style is grounded in person-centred skills to build the therapeutic relationship while drawing on cognitive-behavioural methods, attachment-based approaches and solution-focused techniques. These combined approaches aim to increase self-understanding, develop coping skills and support emotional wellbeing during and after the course of therapy.

Integrative Approaches and Online Therapy Options

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current connections and emotional patterns. In online sessions this approach can help clients understand issues such as abandonment or attachment-related struggles and work toward more secure ways of relating.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, offers practical strategies to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression and body image concerns and can be delivered effectively through structured online sessions that include skill-building and problem-solving.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on clients' strengths and immediate goals, helping to identify small, achievable steps toward change. This brief, goal-oriented method can be especially useful for coping with life transitions and clarifying priorities.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Joanna will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - whether via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. These options increase accessibility and allow therapists and clients to focus on meaningful work without requiring in-person attendance.
