About Josephine

Josephine Cleverly is a UK-licensed integrative counsellor with six years of professional experience. She completed a BA in Psychology, Psychotherapy and Counselling in Lancashire and went on to earn a Masters in Integrative Counselling in Melbourne, Australia. Her background includes several years as a school counsellor at a large international school in Singapore, where she worked with a wide range of ages and presenting issues.

She has supported adults and young people who have experienced domestic violence and trauma, and has focused on helping people manage stress and anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem and confidence. In addition, she has several years of experience working with children and young people with additional needs and supporting their siblings and families.

Her integrative training means she draws on multiple theories and methods, including attachment theory, play therapy, person-centred work, cognitive behavioural approaches and solution-focused techniques, and adapts these to the needs of each person. Her listed credential is BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - noted here as the professional body associated with her practice.

Josephine practices in a person-led way that can include creative activities alongside talking, aiming to help people process thoughts and feelings in ways that feel comfortable and natural. She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity and compassion and tailors dialogue and treatment planning to meet individual needs. She offers support for those taking the courageous step toward a more fulfilling life.

Integrative therapeutic approaches for online care

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is a structured approach that helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It is commonly used for stress, anxiety and depression and equips people with practical skills to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Attachment-informed work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and emotion regulation. This approach can be helpful for people dealing with relationship difficulties, trauma, and issues around trust and intimacy, offering ways to understand and shift relational patterns.

Play therapy techniques support children and young people by using creative, age-appropriate activities to express feelings and work through challenges. These methods are especially useful when verbal expression is difficult or when supporting those with additional needs.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Josephine collaborates with each person to explore their needs, goals and preferences, and she adapts methods so the work fits the individual. This collaborative process helps determine whether CBT, attachment-informed work, play-based activities or a blend of techniques will be most useful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging - making it easier to access licensed professionals from different locations and to fit therapy into busy lives. These options allow therapists to maintain continuity of care and to use the communication style that feels most comfortable for each person.
