Internal Healing with Jo

Hi I’m Jo, the founder of Internal Healing with Jo.

I work holistically as a Somatic Therapist and Mental Health Mentor, and am also a mother, partner and grandmother with a beautiful, blended family.

Growing up, I had many wonderful memories throughout my childhood and into my teenage years. 

I was then blessed to become a mum in my mid to late twenties, which led to my energy shifting into home life, looking after my kids and their needs as top priority. I had this outlook, that to be the perfect parent and partner I had to give my all and my needs were not a priority. At the time I never questioned it and was happy with it, but it came at a great cost, leading to the loss of my relationship with myself.

My Services

All offerings catered to Youth and Families seeking support, understanding and compassion.

Working with me is more than talk therapy. Talk therapy is the crucial foundation of awareness  and understanding around your story, but it doesn’t heal underlying patterns and emotional wounds that are driving your current thoughts, feelings and behaviors. I bring long lasting transformation and healing that goes beyond treating surface symptoms.

Talk therapy works with the intellectual mind on a conscious level. I work with both the conscious and subconscious mind together, bringing both awareness and real lasting change.

  • Uncovering stress stored in the body

  • Uncovering and rewire deep-seated beliefs and thought patterns that stem from past experiences that are driving your daily thoughts, feelings and behavioral patterns that you want to positively change

  • Understanding the underlying issues, letting it go, and allowing you to feel whole and balanced

Exploring past experiences from early childhood or significant life events restores self-control, deepens self-awareness, and resolves long-standing patterns. This journey brings the lasting change you've been seeking, resulting in meaningful and transformative outcomes.

As you cultivate a deeper emotional connection with yourself, you begin to naturally nurture more meaningful connections with those around you. This inner shift creates harmony within your relationships, restoring balance, understanding, and warmth within your home and rippling outward to positively influence your family, friendships, and wider community.

TESTIMONIALS

  • She really listened to me and I felt very comfortable opening up to her

    I have been working with Joanne over the past few months.She has a very calm energy about her and is a kind and compassionate person. She really listened to me and I felt very comfortable opening up to her. I felt very held, supported and safe in our sessions. With her guidance and support I’ve been able to explore the trauma of my past and really understand what happened to me and why it happened and I am now able to let it all go and move forward in my life in a peaceful way.

    I highly recommend Joanne to anyone that is struggling in their life and wants to work with someone that can really help them get results!

  • She is wonderfully nurturing and amazing at what she does

    ‘My 12 year old son started having sessions with Jo a little under 6 months ago. He’s a sensitive boy and we have tried quite a few different therapists since he was young. For the first time we are seeing REAL progress with him. He’s gained so much confidence, is handling situations, life in general so much better. He trusts Jo & feels comfortable with her. She is just wonderfully nurturing & amazing at what she does. I can’t recommend Jo enough

  • This care and passion guides everything she does.

    Jo’s genuine kindness, skill and casual but caring way of communicating helped our teenage daughter form a trusting relationship and open up much more easily than we expected. Jo worked in partnership with our daughter to identify her symptoms and condition, and tailored her tools and techniques to our daughters passions which effectively engaged her in the process and supported her healing. Jo maintained communication with us parents, providing guidance and support to our family through this journey. We genuinely trust that Jo has the best interests of our daughter and us at heart - and this care and passion guides everything she does.
