Patient with Chronic Depression
‘Thank you so much for restoring my sanity and ‘joie de vivre’ and for patiently teaching me ‘better ways of thinking’. You’ve made a real difference to my life going forward. With affection, appreciation and gratitude.’
Client with Chronic Pain
‘I've just completed a six week CBT Pain Management programme with Joanne and I would highly recommend the course to anyone who is suffering from Chronic Pain. My scores on the pain index have reduced, as well as anxiety related to the pain. From the first session Joanne made me feel very welcome and I felt comfortable talking about my pain journey. She has a great wealth of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy knowledge and experience and has given me many useful strategies that I can use to help manage my pain and the negative thought patterns that can often accompany it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐’
