About Josie

Josie Peacock is a psychotherapeutic counsellor with five years of clinical experience. She has worked in independent practice, within the NHS, and more recently with a charity in end of life and palliative care. Josie offers calm, practical support for people who feel stuck or overwhelmed.

She helps people talk through anxiety, stress, low mood and grief. She also supports those dealing with addictions, trauma and relationship difficulties. Conversations focus on building confidence, improving self-esteem and finding small, manageable steps forward.

Background and approach

Her style is warm and friendly. Josie aims to listen carefully, treat people with respect and respond without judgement. Sessions are paced to suit each person’s needs and energy levels.

Josie uses a mix of therapeutic ways of working depending on the issue. She draws on approaches such as trauma-focused work, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based techniques to help people process difficult experiences. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and client-centred ideas also influence her sessions.

Josie holds NCPS, which is shown as her professional credential. She offers sessions in English and is based in the United Kingdom. People can work with her online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging, which can help fit therapy into busy lives.

Her aim is practical progress rather than quick fixes. She works collaboratively to set realistic goals and build tools that can be used day to day.

Ways of working Josie names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Josie uses trauma-focused work to help people face and process difficult past events in a paced way, aiming to reduce distress linked to those memories. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-led actions so life can feel more meaningful even when feelings are hard. Attachment-based therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect current behaviour and emotional responses, which can be useful for relationship and intimacy issues.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Josie treats this as a collaborative process and will suggest methods based on what the person wants to achieve. Together they try different ideas and pick what feels most helpful for the client’s goals and preferences.

Online therapy with Josie is offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging, which makes sessions easier to fit around work and family life. Video calls let people see non-verbal cues, phone sessions can be lighter on internet data, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it straightforward to keep continuity of care while managing practical life demands.
