Josephine Nabukeera, BACP

Josephine Nabukeera is a counsellor with nine years' experience who supports people through life’s hard moments. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space and works alongside clients as they make sense of stress, anxiety, grief and other struggles. Josephine is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and brings a practical, person-focused style to sessions.

She believes people have the capacity to grow and reach the goals that matter to them. In sessions she listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps people identify small, achievable steps. The aim is to build confidence, reduce overwhelm and restore a sense of control over everyday life.

Josephine blends client-centred work with therapies such as cognitive behavioural ideas and acceptance-based skills. She also draws on attachment-focused and dialectical approaches when they fit the person’s needs. This flexible mix helps when problems stem from relationships, past hurts or patterns of thinking and behaviour.

Her practice includes support for a wide range of concerns, from relationships, parenting and family problems to depression, trauma, addiction, ADHD and body image. She also offers help with career stress, sleep and eating difficulties, and feelings of shame or isolation.

As an Employment Assistance Programme counsellor she has experience helping people balance high-pressure work with wellbeing. To begin, clients use the site’s Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling according to the therapist’s availability.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting swept away, then choose actions that align with their values. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioural experiments to reduce symptoms like worry or sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from early relationships and how they affect current connections, which can help with intimacy, abandonment and family issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with people about what they hope to change and try methods that fit those goals. This is a collaborative process where approaches can be adjusted as needs and preferences become clearer.

Session options are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current formats before booking. Many people find online sessions useful because they save travel time, make it easier to fit appointments into a workday and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Online work can also let people use practical techniques together in the moment, such as behavioural experiments or grounding exercises, while staying in a familiar routine.
