More about Joanne
- 6 years' experience

I am a CPCAB-trained Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist, offering a warm, compassionate and person-centred approach. I believe every person is worthy of being heard, understood and treated with dignity, kindness and respect.
Do you ever feel overwhelmed by life, struggle with everyday tasks, or find that past experiences continue to affect you? Perhaps you are carrying something that feels difficult to understand or share. You may not know what support you need or even where to begin. You do not have to have all the answers. I offer a safe, confidential and caring space where we can gently explore what you are experiencing together.
I have particular experience supporting neurodivergent clients, including ADHD and Autism, as well as individuals living with physical disabilities and neurological conditions where cognitive functioning is unaffected.
I have undertaken specialist training with the National Autistic Society (NAS) and have experience working with NHS referrals, alongside links with UK Carers services. I am also DBS checked, reflecting my commitment to safe, ethical and responsible practice.
I am a fully credentialed counsellor and psychotherapist, and a practising Christian. My approach is integrative, drawing on person-centred, IFS, Psychodynamic and Transactional Analysis (TA) therapy, integrated with the wisdom of Christianity — recognising that true healing often involves the whole person: mind, body, and soul.
I warmly welcome people of no faith, little faith, or strong faith, including people from different Christian traditions and backgrounds. Faith is never imposed and will only form part of our work if you would like it to. Your beliefs, values and worldview will always be respected.
I am registered with both the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the Association of Christian Counsellors (ACC).
Above all, I seek to offer a therapeutic relationship built on kindness, empathy, compassion and genuine care. My hope is that you will feel safe enough to be yourself, heard without judgement, and supported as you explore your experiences and discover the strength and possibilities within you.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Joanne is a kind therapist and generous listener. She strikes the perfect balance of holding space and offering insight and helpful, eye opening perspectives.
I was very comfortable with Joanne, she's someone I could open to easily
She is very warm and easy to talk to. Makes you feel comfortable and relaxed
Joanne has been very helpful
Joanne is incredibly easy to talk to, responding in gentle and kind ways. She is able to find and recommend helpful resources and chat them through with you. From a christian perspective also, she is incredible at pointing everything back to God and to Him as our support
Jo is my lighthouse in the storm. She never fails to provide me with the tools needed to get me through life's challenges. She exudes kindness and I always come away feeling better after talking with her.
Jo changed my life. I met her during one of my lowest points when I genuinely didn’t think I could go on. I found her after trying a few therapists, and she was the one I truly connected with, the one I felt safe with. I came to her feeling broken, not understanding myself or even who I was. Piece by piece, Jo helped me rebuild- guiding me to discover who I am and how to live in alignment with that truth. She was there through my darkest times, holding space with patience, empathy, and unwavering support. Jo is deeply understanding and non-judgemental, yet she also holds you accountable in the most compassionate way, gently pushing you to face what needs healing. Her honesty, insight, and ability to help you reflect are rare gifts. Jo is not only an incredible therapist- she is a bright light in this world. I genuinely don’t know how I would have survived the past few years without her. I can’t recommend her enough.
Have really appreciated Joanne's care and listening through our sessions, would highly recommend her work.
What to say about Jo - life changer! Ive had the honour and privilege of working with Jo for 5 months now, and I can confidently say that my experience has been nothing short of transformative. From our very first session, it was clear that Jo possesses not only a deep expertise but also a rare empathy that makes each conversation feel both meaningful and safe. She has a unique ability to create a non-judgmental space where I feel heard and understood, allowing me to explore my thoughts and emotions with clarity. Their approach is both professional and compassionate, skillfully blending evidence-based techniques with genuine care for my well-being. Every session feels personalised, and I always leave with thought provoking moments or insights that help me navigate life’s challenges. If you’re looking for a therapist who is not only skilled and knowledgeable but also deeply invested in your personal growth and healing, I wholeheartedly recommend Jo. Their professionalism, warmth, humour and dedication to their clients make them an exceptional choice for anyone seeking support.
Joanne is a friendly face and has a good listening ear and listens to hear and really take in and think about what you said.
Jo is an excellent therapist. She understands me, and I feel fully seen and heard in our sessions. I always leave the sessions feeling like a load has been lifted. I highly recommend her.
This was my first experience of Therapy. Jo was excellent, pushing me to really get into it and giving me a number of tools and techniques with which to help myself. Each session i felt that i came away with something valuable to take forwards with me. Thank you Jo, you have helped me enormously.
Jo is an exceptional therapist, consistently guiding me to the core of my issues with remarkable insight and empathy. My progress since starting sessions with her has been substantial, and I feel fortunate to have chosen her as my therapist. Her approach is both effective and compassionate, making each session profoundly beneficial.
Joanne has been extremely supportive and has offered me valuable guidance and ways to view my current issues. I am in a much better space after I started therapy.
Joanne Saulter has been amazing! very flexible and very caring.
Good therapist
I have only one theraphy session so far with Joanne Saulte. Initial impression is been good and worthwhile to continue and to help me in my emotional and practical challenges.
Im so pleased i was matched with Joanne and i can feel comfortable sharing what is important to me, she is so loving and accepting
Joanne has really helped me to understand my relationship issues, depression and the worries I have about my situation. She is a caring and compassionate listener, highly recommend.
I’ve only been with Joanne a few weeks, however since starting better help over 2 months ago, I’ve felt more improvement mentally these past two weeks with Joanne that I have with any other therapist. She is so kind and talkative, she knows what to say to make you feel better and helps you self reflect on your own behaviours to help clients recognise there behaviours. She is amazing! I’ve already recommended her to my parents for my little sister who struggles with Autism.
The best therapist I've ever had, it definitely helped that I understood what I needed from therapy before I matched with her but also the support she provides and the care she gives is amazing. Very grateful for her
I came to Jo when I was at my absolute worst. Her guidance and therapeutic methods have changed my life. I am so greatful for her and everything she has done. She works with her clients needs and is able to adapt the way she uses her methods specifically to the individual. She is an excellent and therapist and I cannot recommend her enough. I do think she is able to work with most people, so if you are looking for an experienced, kind and compassion therapist then go for her. As you can tell that she genuinely wants to help people and has the ability and skill to do so. I have changed alot of therapists till I finally found her. All in all 5 stars and I have never given 5 stars to anyone or written a review for anything!
Joanne was understanding, calm, and made me think. She was always quick to reply to messages.
She understands where I am coming from and really listens to me. She hears me and the feeling of somebody who you know will take all your feelings onboard is amazing and reassuring.
Ive had a really positive experience of Joanne so far, im feeling very positive about this course of action
Absolutely brilliant. I had several doubts about therapy but after just a few sessions I can really see the benefit, and I'm already starting to put a different and fresh perspective on things. Jo is present and attentive, with a deep empathy and understanding.
