I have completed nine sessions of therapy focused on counselling me through my grief journey upon the devastating loss of my mother. I cannot thank Josephine enough for being by my side on this seemingly impossible journey and helping me to find my way through the most troublesome thoughts and feelings that I have experienced so far in my life. Not only is she a deeply empathetic human being who clearly has a passion for what she does, I immediately built trust with her as she demonstrates a genuine interest in people and cares very much for helping them. On top of all this it is clear that she is extremely knowledgeable in the area of psychology and the range of techniques she took me through to just give me a helpful coping toolbox throughout this incredibly difficult time was astounding which gave me great faith in her and helped me to view things in a number of different ways that will improve my mental health and well being going forward. She is a person that I will never forget who has had such an important guiding and shaping role in my life in the few sessions I had with her and she has no idea how much she helps people because there are no words that are sufficient enough to express this. I would recommend her as a therapist a billion times over without reservation. Josephine Waugh is a wonderful professional and a beautiful human and I was privileged to have had some of her time.

Josephine is an incredible counsellor, and she truly goes above and beyond in the service she provides. After just 1 session with Josephine, I felt a sense of hope again as she was kind, understanding, and great at adapting to my particular situation. I was in a very bad place and had a short amount of time to work on my mental health before I go away. She was incredibly understanding of this and adapted the CBT schedule accordingly. I had CBT on the NHS, which was not effective for me and made me feel like there was no hope; however, starting CBT with Josephine has had such an enormous impact on my wellbeing. Her counselling is incredibly high quality, and she is truly amazing at what she does. As a result, I have regained that hope for my mental health, which I had lost. After just 4 sessions with her, I have seen the biggest improvement in my mental health since I started struggling. Josephine is excellent at teaching you how to cope with your struggles. In the short time I have had with her, she has already taught me incredibly valuable tools, helping me to identify my unhelpful thoughts and most importantly how to improve upon them and reframe them! By adjusting the CBT to my specific situation and thoughts I have seen significant results in my anxiety and depression and Josephine has given me the techniques to continue this positive change and to move forward. I could not recommend her enough! Josephine is warm, welcoming and highly professional. It's been a wonderful experience learning from her, and I am excited to continue improving my wellbeing with her in the future.

I would firmly recommend Josephine as a therapist. Josephine created a calm and welcoming environment which allowed me to feel comfortable in sessions. Josephine enabled me to feel supported, while also investigating and challenging me, which allowed me to progress and move past unresolved issues I was having with respect to important relationships and lasting impacts of grief.
