JOELLE HARARI
PSYCHOTHERAPY
A forward thinking practitioner
I offer both short and long term psychotherapy and counselling in an inclusive, non judgmental environment in which we can work together to better understand whatever might be troubling you. As a modern and forward thinking practitioner I will work collaboratively with you, focusing on developing an honest therapeutic relationship based on mutual respect.
WHAT CAN I HELP YOU WITH?
You may come to therapy with a clear issue you’d like to explore, or simply a sense that something doesn’t feel right. Perhaps you're feeling stuck, sad, overwhelmed or unsure why things feel difficult at all. Whatever brings you here, therapy offers a space to be listened to with care, curiosity and without judgment.
I work with both adults and adolescents and have experience supporting clients with a wide range of concerns, including:
Depression & anxiety
Persistent low mood, overwhelm or a sense of dread you can't quite shake.
Social anxiety
Fear of judgment or embarrassment that makes social situations exhausting.
Relationship & family difficulties
Conflict, communication issues or patterns that feel hard to break.
Work related stress or burnout
Feeling overwhelmed, undervalued and emotionally exhausted by your job.
Motivation problems
Struggling to find energy, direction or a sense of purpose in your day to day.
Low self esteem & confidence
A harsh inner critic, self doubt and not feeling good enough.
Bereavement and loss
Grieving the death of someone close or coping with other forms of loss.
Eating disorders & self harm
Using food or physical pain as a way to manage emotional distress.
Sex & body image concerns
Difficulties related to sexual identity, intimacy and body acceptance.

Exploring the strengths and challenges of being neurodivergent, including questions of identity, belonging, self acceptance, the impact of masking and burnout and navigating a world not always designed with difference in mind.
Traumatic experiences, past or recent
Processing events that continue to affect your sense of safety, trust and self worth.
Meaning, purpose & the bigger questions
Exploring the spiritual, philosophical and existential questions that run beneath everyday life and how to live in a way that feels authentic, grounded and aligned with your values.
