Jo Solomon

Jo Solomon is a counsellor, psychotherapist, group analyst and clinical supervisor. After gaining a BA(Hons) in Fine Art, Jo pursued her interest in the creative potential of groups, using the arts as a therapeutic tool in a wide range of community settings. She deepened this work through her training as an individual therapist and clinical supervisor and more recently through 7 years of academic and experiential learning, to become a Group Analyst. She is accredited with BACP, registered with UKCP and is a full clinical member of the Institute of Group Analysis.

Jo’s theoretical framework is psychodynamic, drawing on psychoanalytic thinking and developmental and attachment theory. Her practice is relational, recognising that our interconnectedness at all levels, is the key agent for change.

Jo has over 25 years’ experience of working therapeutically with young people and adults in settings including schools, colleges, and universities, as well as in the voluntary sector and in independent practice. She is Clinical Lead for a service providing counselling for children and young people across several inner-city schools. Working with colleagues, she has also developed a Reflective Practice service for Headteachers and other key staff which currently provides regular reflective space for 30 school leaders; she advocates strongly for the benefit of thinking space within educational and other complex settings. Passionate about the transformative potential of groups, Jo offers therapy and supervision individually and in groups.
