About Josephine

Josephine Nabukeera is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, and addiction. She also works with issues such as grief, intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger and self-esteem, and ADHD. Josephine presents as a client-centred practitioner who blends several therapeutic approaches to meet presenting needs.

She describes working collaboratively with people to identify practical steps and emotional patterns that get in the way. Sessions focus on talking through current struggles, noticing how emotions and relationships affect day-to-day life, and developing skills that help with coping and decision-making. The tone is direct and respectful, with attention to what someone wants to change.

Josephine integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy when appropriate. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns and how early experiences influence how people respond now. This gives a mix of feeling-focused and skills-based work.

As an Employment Assistance Programme counsellor she has experience helping staff manage work-related anxiety and balance job pressures with life outside work. That experience informs short-term practical tools and clearer thinking about workplace stress.

Practical matters such as session cost vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. People who want to begin are asked to use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on naming and understanding emotions and attachment-related patterns. It can help when strong feelings or recurring relationship behaviours are hard to name or change.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take small changes in everyday life while learning to live with difficult thoughts. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes.

Attachment-Based ideas are used to explore how early relationships shape current ways of relating. This can help with patterns of closeness, abandonment fears and commitment concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then agree a way forward together. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed promise about methods.

Session arrangements should be confirmed before booking. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please check which options are offered when you sign up. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time, while still letting therapist and client focus on emotions and practical steps.
