About Wendy
Wendy Joseph is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 16 years of mental health experience. She previously worked as a UK Registered Mental Health Nurse for 20 years and combines that clinical background with counselling practice. She lists concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationships, grief, sleep problems and anger.
Her approach draws on attachment-based work, client-centred practice and existential thinking. She also uses mindfulness techniques and the Gottman Method in relationship-focused work. Wendy offers structured programmes such as attachment style work, executive functioning, emotional regulation, addiction support and ADHD coaching.
Wendy integrates body-focused trauma methods and polyvagal-informed ideas alongside psychological models. She references somatic experiencing and trauma approaches aimed at reducing distress during memory processing. Practical tools include validated self-report measures supplied through an external psychology company and evidence-based positive psychology techniques.
Her background includes published research on autism, domestic violence and dementia risk prediction. She completed an MSc with distinction in Public Health and holds a BSc (Hons) in Psychology. She also undertakes substantial continuing professional development each year and is involved in clinical supervision practice.
People can expect a relaxed, flexible style where the client leads the pace. Wendy can recommend web resources and assessment tools to track progress, and she offers structured short programmes alongside open talking work.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Attachment-based work focuses on understanding relationship patterns and emotional bonds. In practice this means talking about how past relationships shape current reactions, and learning different ways to connect and regulate emotions. Client-centred therapy puts the person's experiences and perspectives at the centre. The therapist listens without directing, reflecting back what is said to help the client make sense of their feelings and choices. Mindfulness therapy involves simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity. It helps people notice rising anger and create a small space before they act, useful for stress, sleep problems and persistent irritability. Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Wendy will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and she will help decide whether short structured programmes or open sessions suit a client's needs. That choice is collaborative and can shift as therapy progresses. The profile does not specify which session formats are used, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a day, allow shorter check-ins when needed and remove travel time. It can also allow sessions without being on camera if that helps with concentration or energy levels.Areas of focus
