About Jo Ahmed
Jo practices in a client-centered way, prioritising the lived experience of each person and working from the belief that a supportive therapeutic environment helps people access their own capacity for change. She works collaboratively, aiming to bridge gaps in understanding and to create a space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings without having to repeatedly explain differences. Jo communicates in plain language, answers questions as they arise and avoids unnecessary jargon to keep clients at the centre of the process.
Her background spans roles in health and social care across public and private sectors, which informs her interest in the effects of workplace stress, systemic family hurts and the challenges faced by underrepresented, intersectional individuals. Jo draws on a range of therapeutic ideas as needed but remains grounded in client-centered principles, offering both short-term and longer-term work depending on each person’s needs. Jo aims to bring understanding rather than assumptions to sessions and to support clients as they navigate change and recovery.
Jo is not currently accepting new clients.
