A note from Jolian
Therapy for overwhelmed professionals
Hi, I'm Jolian (Jo) — an NCPS-accredited Counsellor and Psychotherapist based in Barry, working in person and online across the UK. I help caring, high-achieving people who are running on empty: burnout, anxiety, stress and compassion fatigue.

My Dog
Meet Atlas, the Great Dane
Diagnosed by the vet as a "massive doofus", from a young age Atlas knew his purpose — to live life to the full, bark at seagulls (and pigeons and cats and cars…), and love deeply (by nibbling/cobbing any exposed love handles or bingo wings he can find).
Originally I got him with a slightly grandiose vision of having a very large therapy dog to work with clients. Atlas however has decided that life is too short, and he would rather play tug of war, wrestle, or sniff every blade of grass than do free work. Frankly I admire his boundary setting.
Safe to say, he will not be joining us for therapy — though I think he could benefit from working on some feelings towards delivery drivers.
