About me

Hello, my name is Josephine,

"Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about your next steps? I offer a warm, supportive space where you can explore your feelings and work towards a positive change at your own pace."

I am a qualified, registered therapeutic counsellor working in an integrative, person-centred, client-led model of psychotherapy. I have complete Professional Liability Insurance and enhanced DBS clearance. As a qualified therapist, I can help you try and make sense of your world, enabling you to lead a more fulfilling life. It can be daunting making that first initial decision to attend counselling. I want to reassure you that you will be in a safe environment without fearing judgement.

"Creating a space where you feel safe."

Training, qualifications & experience

As a trained, experienced, and qualified Counsellor, I previously worked as a Counsellor at Women's Aid, and was also a Trustee.

I have a Master's Degree from Goldsmith's University, London, "Understanding Domestic Violence and Sexual Abuse," which has given me a greater insight into the complexity of working with domestic abuse.

I have achieved a Level 3 Training/Education certificate & have run several training courses over the years on Domestic Abuse, Alcohol and Drug misuse, and Coercive Control.

I am a registered member of BACP and adhere to their Ethical Framework for good practice. I have an enhanced DBS certificate issued in July 2020.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.

Accredited register membership

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).

This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Key details

DBS check info

In England and Wales, the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS, formerly known as CRB) carry out criminal records checks for individuals working with vulnerable groups, such as children. To find out more, visit gov.uk , or contact this professional directly

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
