About Wendy
Wendy Joseph is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 16 years' experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family problems, grief, sleep difficulties, anger and career strain. She also supports coping with life changes and offers coaching for practical goals.
Her background includes a BSc (Hons) in Psychology and an MSc (Distinction) in Public Health. She spent 20 years as a registered mental health nurse in the UK and has published research on autism, domestic violence and dementia risk prediction. She is an advanced integrated clinical supervisor and has extensive continuing professional development each year.
In sessions she uses a mix of attachment-based, client-centred and existential approaches alongside mindfulness techniques and the Gottman Method. Her style is relaxed and flexible; she takes the client's lead while offering structured programmes when useful. Examples include attachment style work, emotional regulation, ADHD coaching and relationship repair.
She draws on somatic and polyvagal ideas for stress and trauma and uses practical tools such as solution-focused brief therapy, motivational interviewing and positive psychology techniques. She can provide validated self-report measures through an external psychology provider and will suggest reliable resources and exercises to support change.
Wendy has developed and run group programmes on stress, sleep and coping with voices, and she brings clinical experience from dementia care, intimate partner violence services and neurodiversity-informed practice. Prospective clients are asked to use the site's matching and booking steps to arrange a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relational patterns shape reactions today. It helps people who notice repeated cycles in close relationships and who want clearer ways to respond rather than react. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience and pace, using listening and reflection to help someone speak through difficult feelings and make their own decisions. Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce emotional reactivity and improve sleep and stress management.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Wendy discusses goals, preferences and practical needs to find what fits best. She adjusts methods over time, combining somatic ideas, solution-focused tools or relationship work as needed so clients can try different ways of managing anger and related issues.
If you want to use online sessions, please confirm available formats before booking as they are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, offer a quieter environment when that helps, or allow shorter check-ins on a lunch break. Registered or accredited professionals can also offer resources and measurement tools that you can use between sessions to track progress and practise new skills.
