Internal Family Systems

In a time of feeling incredibly disconnected from my partner, I jumped online and found Jo - reading the google reviews was a huge encouragement in booking in with her so of course I feel compelled to add our experience to the mix here! The weekend intensive really appealed to me because I felt hopeful we would be able to take the time to tackle our issues head on and get deep rather than the stop start of shorter sessions over a longer period of time. It appealed to my partner because he liked the idea of getting it over and done with in one week 😉 Although we were nervous going in - we both felt at ease immediately thanks to Jo’s kind and welcoming nature. The format of the intensive did exactly as we hoped and much much much more - the private sessions gave each of us the space to explore our individual backgrounds in a way neither of us ever had before, while the joint sessions were instrumental in helping us see things with compassion and understanding for each other. This meant we were able to address the root of our issues. We left our weekend feeling closer than ever - having learnt more about ourselves as individuals and each other on a deep level. Jo provided us with some very simple (but extremely effective) tools which means we are now able to communicate with ease - both expressing ourselves and listen actively! We both feel seen, understood, loved, and excited for the future of our relationship. Cannot recommend Jo highly enough!!

My husband and I participated in the 2 day intensive counselling with Jo and i have come here to highly recommend it. Jo showed incredible insight and analysis into our behaviours and was able to frame it very clearly for both of us in a way that we could both understand. I have come away from the intensive session feeling clear headed and equipped with the skills and knowledge of what needs to happen from here on. At all times Jo was diplomatic and called both of us out equally on unproductive behaviour. The space was comfortable and I left feeling very warm. I am really happy we chose to do the 2 day intensive because we were able to dive really deep without interruption. Thank you so much Jo, I really feel like you genuinely were interested in helping us understand our relationship.

We are so grateful for your assistance over the last few months. You completely changed our relationship and we are so looking forward to the next chapter of our life together. Thanks so much.

My husband and I came to Jo based on her google reviews and found they are totally accurate. Thanks to Jo we are in a healthier, more balanced relationship than ever and I would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone looking to improve their relationship, self awareness and communication. Thank you Jo for your focussed attention, invaluable insight and practical guidance.

Jo helped my wife and me through a tough time with some excellent insight and compassion, we both found our sessions beneficial which we left with practical objectives and feeling like we were progressing each time. Her home practice was welcoming and relaxed, I would recommend anyone contacting her for couples counseling. Thanks Jo don’t take this the wrong way but I hope I never see you again!

I’m grateful to have found Jo at Evolving Connections. I felt heard from our first phone call and getting an available appointment was quite quick. Jo is warm and friendly but also challenges you, she is a safe space. I’ve not connected with other therapists like I was able to with Jo.

Jo is a very talented counsellor that can cut through and help you to understand each other and your own triggers. She has been amazing at helping us learn how to communicate so much more effectively with each other and as a consequence we feel more connected in our relationship and more confident we can resolve any issues that present in the future. We are forever grateful to have Jo on our side.

Jo has helped us beyond words, when our relationship felt impossible. This woman is amazing at her job! Worth every cent to have her wise guidance, she helped us identify our triggers and end old and long lasting patterns that were ruining our relationship and family!! We are forever grateful for you Jo 🙂

Not your average counselor - Jo is fantastic and does amazing, significant work.

My sessions with Jo are transformative. It’s been quite a journey, one I highly recommend. My self awareness and compassion continues to increase. Jo has been a great support for me while navigating challenging times and now having moved through them, she continues to be a great support to help me thrive.
