Hello and welcome, I'm Jo Woods.


Working with me will enable you to manage the inevitable challenges of life and relationships calmly and kindly. This essentially requires you to develop a stronger relationship with your Self – in mind, emotion and body.

How I Work

My approach is educational, compassionate and very practical. I will provide insights to help you understand your thoughts, feelings, memories, reactivity and relationship challenges as well as providing guidance and practices to liberate you from negative behaviours, habituate positive behaviours and learn emotion regulation. All of this serves to clarify a way of living that increases life satisfaction, relationship harmony and inner peace.

I work with individuals and couples in Private Sessions, either in-person or via Zoom. 

I have developed a couple of self-led video and email programs that are effective on their own or as a complement to sessions.

And, once a month I present an Open Session - a free, live-streamed talk and Q&A - open to everyone.

Jo is a rare gem in a sea of counselling options. She is honest to a T, warm, genuinely cares and empowers you to find your own journey in working through issues. Cannot recommend her more highly!

Marianne

Private Sessions

After your session yesterday with Tim, I was astounded by his positive energy, excitement and enthusiasm for the future and his goals. He spoke about the session for about an hour nonstop! I’ve not seen him so passionate about the future and his own life in the whole time I’ve known him.

Annie

Private Sessions

Nick and I have been doing your relationship retreat and we have gained so much from it already. Our relationship is already so so different and we have not had any arguments like we used to. So I can’t thank you enough!

Harriet

Relationship Retreat

I just wanted to say thank you for todays session. This has been the first time I’ve vocalised any of these thoughts before, and it was very relieving to talk to you, and hear your thoughts. I came away from our session with a lot to think about, and feeling quite a bit lighter, in a positive way.

Thanks for being a super star - you’ve made a massive difference to my state of mind in the last few months.

Vanessa

Private Sessions

Jo helped me immensely overcome fears of social anxiety and transition through a few difficult years of feeling unsettled. If it wasn't for her openness to listen to my fears and concerns, I know I wouldn't be the same person I am today.
