About me
Hello, my name is Josephine. Do you ever feel that it would be great if you could talk to someone who could see the world from your perspective? Would you like to be able to understand what is going on for you?
I am a qualified, registered therapeutic counsellor, and I work to an integrative, person-centred, client-led model of psychotherapy. I have full Professional Liability Insurance and enhanced DBS clearance. As a qualified therapist, I can help you try and make sense of your world which will help to enable you to lead a more fulfilling life. It can be really daunting making that first initial decision to attend counselling. I would like to reassure you that you will be in a safe environment without the fear of being judged.
"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 Level 3 Training/Education certificate & have run several training courses over the years on Domestic Abuse, Alcohol & Drug misuse, and Coercive Control.
I am a registered member of BACP and adhere to their Ethical Framework for good practice. My enhanced DBS certificate was issued in July 2020.
Member organisations

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

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.
