Personalised CFS & fatigue recovery coaching
Chronic Fatigue Recovery Coaching with Jo Thomas
Without Pushing, Forcing, or Giving Up on Your Goals.
1:1 support for people living with
ME/CFS, long COVID, POTS, or burnout.
Beyond exhausted. And not sure how to move forward.
If you've landed here, chances are you've already tried a lot.
Maybe resting more. Pushing less. Tracking your steps. Cutting back on everything.
Or convincing yourself everything is fine — and trying to push through anyway.
And yet the crashes keep coming. The fear quietly grows. You feel like you're losing yourself. And life keeps feeling smaller than it should.
Whether you're navigating CFS, Long COVID, POTS — or burnout that has left your energy completely depleted — I want you to know something.
This isn't about trying harder. There's a different way forward.
Recovery isn't about trying harder or finding more willpower. It's about learning to work with your nervous system, your energy, and your mindset — in the right order, at the right pace.
That's exactly what I help people do. And I've seen it change lives — including my own.

Hi, I’m JO...
A Fatigue coach, NHS nurse, and someone who has personally recovered from chronic fatigue and POTS.
I understand how debilitating this can be — because I've lived it myself.
I know what it's like to be a capable, driven person whose world quietly gets smaller. To try everything and still keep crashing. To not be progressing. To wonder if this is just how life is going to be now.
Thankfully, it doesn't have to be. That's exactly why I do this work.
I work with men and women living with chronic fatigue, Long COVID, POTS, and burnout — combining NLP coaching with 20+ years of clinical nursing experience and my own lived recovery. The result is an approach that is grounded, compassionate, and genuinely personalised to you.
I don't believe in one-size-fits-all recovery. I believe in working with where you are right now — stabilising your energy first, then gently growing your capacity — so that progress feels sustainable, not scary.
If you're currently receiving medical care, my coaching works comfortably alongside it. I work with clients via video call, so wherever you are, support is accessible.

Although my initial weekly sessions have ended, I plan to book in check in points with Jo over the next few months and would absolutely recommend the coaching to a friend.

With Jo's support, I've been able to start doing things I didn't think would be possible for a long time such was walking, gentle exercise, household tasks, and even beginning to explore a return to work. I no longer fear "crashes" in the way I used to, which has been life changing.

My biggest takeaway from the course has to be that Jo helped me understand the nuances between pacing, NLP and nervous system work. Previously pacing felt like a danger signal to my nervous system. I applied it rigidly and was so scared to make a mistake, over analysing my pacing plan all the time. When this felt wrong and unproductive, I then went to the other extreme, thinking that in order to champion a more positive mindset, I had to almost convince myself I was ok, ignoring my symptoms and often not pacing at all. I felt lost, confused and stuck.
The most value came in the program from the fact that although Jo followed a set structure, the content and conversation during sessions was incredibly tailored to what I needed most help with each week.

Working with Jo has been so helpful. Her medical background brings a deeper level of knowledge of ME/CFS that I found reassuring.
Her focus on neurolinguistic programming does help both the mental and physical aspects of this condition. Re-framing mindset and attitude is her approach, and, given how frustrating and hopeless this condition can make you feel, a mind shift is really very important to feeling better.
Coaching help us at a more important level--- pacing, self-acceptance and forgiveness, genuine ways of finding hope and positivity (not false or fake), and tangible suggestions for self-scheduling.
