Get to Know Me

Joseph Mbaeru 2.jpg

My deep-rooted passion for understanding human emotions, behaviours, and the resilience of the human spirit has been a driving force since my early years. This love for mental health and wellbeing has guided me towards a career in therapy, where I can assist individuals in enhancing their self-awareness, navigating life's challenges, and fostering enduring change.

​

My education in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy has provided me with a solid theoretical foundation in humanistic, psychodynamic, and cognitive-behavioural therapy. Young adults, members of the BAME community, trauma survivors, people with anxiety/depression, grief, relationship problems, trauma, low self-esteem, mild, moderate, and severe depression, or dread of the future are just a few of the diverse populations and presenting issues I have had the honour of working with during my clinical training, placements, and private practice. My experiences have reinforced my belief that evidence-based therapy, empathy, and active listening can be beneficial in treatment.

​

As a therapist, I am motivated by the immense privilege of seeing my clients rediscover their inner capacity for resilience and rewrite their stories. To help clients feel heard and empowered, I strive to create a secure and accepting environment. Using my integrative and collaborative approach, I meet clients where they are and incorporate interventions tailored to their specific needs. I integrate cognitive-behavioural techniques, mindfulness, Gestalt, Psychodynamic, PCT or Trauma-informed therapy. Above all, my objective is to assist and support my clients in developing resilience and accomplishing their individual goals.

​

My commitment to individual treatment is complemented by a strong dedication to my professional growth. My objective is to help minimise the stigma associated with mental health issues and increase access to therapy for marginalised communities as I continue my journey through this career path. The prospect of using empathy, expertise, and commitment to help those I care about and truly impact their lives excites me and I consistently stay abreast of the latest research and actively engage in workshops and supervision to enhance my practice. I also recognize the importance of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary teamwork in providing holistic care.

​

I believe in providing not just care, but genuine compassion and support to clients during their most vulnerable moments and enhancing their quality of life. I work with teams, colleagues and as key member of any organization in which I am employed to providing a high standard of care that is tailored in a counselling approaches to meet the unique emotional and psychological needs of my clients. I pride myself as able to uphold the highest standards of professional ethics and confidentiality.
