Our Services
Comprehensive support tailored to your unique needs
Counselling Service
One-to-one therapy, tailored to you.
Life can feel overwhelming sometimes whether you’re managing anxiety, trauma, loss, burnout, or simply feeling stuck.
Through 1:1 therapy, I offer a warm, supportive space to explore what’s going on and find ways to move forward with confidence and clarity. Together, we’ll focus on what matters most to you at your pace, in your way.
Sessions are available:
- Online – from the comfort of your own space
- In person – at my private therapy suite in Stafford
Out in nature – with walk-and-talk sessions in calming, natural surroundings.
Bespoke Support
Therapy that adapts to your needs not the other way around.
No two people experience the world in the same way. That’s why I offer personalised support for individuals who may face barriers to traditional therapy, including:
- Neurodiverse clients
- Deaf clients
- Individuals with additional needs
Accessibility and inclusion are at the heart of THRYV because everyone deserves a space to be heard, understood, and supported.
Training

SUPPORT
Everyone’s journey is different, and that’s why I offer a range of therapy formats to suit your preferences, lifestyle, and level of comfort.
Counselling Sessions
Therapy with THRYV is about more than talking it’s about reconnecting with yourself and creating real, lasting change. Using an integrative approach, I draw on different therapeutic models to tailor each session to you and what you need most in that moment.
You can choose the setting that feels right for you:
- In-person sessions at my private therapy suite in Stafford a calm, confidential space where you can pause and reflect.
- Online sessions, accessible wherever you are in the UK, offering flexibility and consistency from the comfort of home.
- Walk-and-talk therapy, held in natural surroundings such as Cannock Chase, Lichfield Park, or Walsall Arboretum combining the benefits of movement, nature, and open conversation.
However you choose to work, you’ll be met with warmth, respect, and a safe space to explore what’s going on for you free from judgment, and entirely at your pace.
Training & Development for Professionals and Businesses
THRYV also provides mental health and wellbeing training for teams and organisations across sectors.
From self-care and emotional resilience to neurodiversity and self-harm & suicide awareness, each session is grounded in frontline experience and therapeutic understanding making it practical, relatable, and impactful.
THRYV helps individuals and workplaces build awareness, reduce stigma, and create cultures of care because everyone deserves the chance to THRYV.

“The training Jo provided on crisis intervention was incredibly insightful and informative for both the students and staff. Crisis situations in counselling can often feel daunting, but Jo offered a fresh perspective and practical tools for effectively navigating these challenging moments in the therapy room. Her approach demystified the process and empowered us with new skills. We were so impressed we have already booked Jo again for our next group and plan to continue collaborating with her in the future.”
Brighter Teaching
Working with High Risk – Self-Harm & Suicide
Face 2 Face Counselling
“My experience has been incredibly supportive, grounding, and gently challenging in all the right ways. I’ve felt consistently safe and understood, even when working through emotionally intense and vulnerable situations. My therapist has helped me reflect with honesty and compassion, rather than judgment”
Client
“The content is well researched, engaging, and so well focused for our team. It is toned in an informal way, with appropriate humour that engages very serious subjects with self-care, kindness and teamwork. The group exercises are great team building exercises and give an appreciation of our team members in this forum.”
Staff Wellbeing Group
“Therapy with THRYV has been life-changing. I came in feeling confused, emotionally overwhelmed, and unsure how to let go of a painful relationship. Over time, I’ve found clarity, calm, and the strength to start choosing myself. If you’re feeling lost or stuck, this is a place where you’ll be seen, heard, and gently guided back to your own truth.”
Client
“I feel more in control of my thoughts, more aware of my emotional responses, and more confident in choosing peace—even when it’s hard.”
Client
“I attended one of Jo’s sessions for the first time last month and can honestly say that I found it very beneficial, not just for myself individually but for the team as whole. The sessions offer a safe space to talk and reflect and also to feel listened to and supported not just by Jo but by our peers within the team.”
Workshop
“Jo helped me see the point again. Things were dark for a while and I wasn’t sure what the future looked like, but I was able to work through it to get to a place where I feel more in control of my life. My anxieties have reduced, and my relationship’s doing better than ever.”
Client
”I wish to sincerely thank Jo for her input; you helped when I felt at my worst. Thank you.”
