Jo Reidy , BACP

Jo Reidy is licensed in the UK and brings 15 years of professional experience to her therapeutic work. She holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and draws on that training to support people coping with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and eating disorders.

Jo focuses on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored honestly. Her approach encourages clients to name difficult emotions and patterns, and to work toward practical steps that feel manageable and meaningful. Seeking help is a courageous step, and Jo emphasizes partnership and empowerment throughout the therapeutic process.

Whether someone is facing a specific difficulty or navigating broader life changes, Jo aims to offer steady support and practical guidance. She helps clients identify their goals, build coping strategies, and strengthen their capacity for healthier relationships and greater well-being.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Jo Reidy uses evidence-based approaches to guide online work in a way that fits each person's needs. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current patterns - it helps with issues like attachment difficulties, relationship struggles, and healing from abandonment or foster care experiences. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own experience and priorities, offering a respectful, empathetic space that supports self-exploration and growth and is helpful for stress, low self-esteem, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical strategies to reduce symptoms - it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping with addictive patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work, and Jo collaborates with each client to determine what methods best match their goals, preferences, and circumstances. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions so they feel relevant and effective.

Online therapy with Jo is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, to maintain continuity during life changes, and to connect with a licensed professional from different locations.
