About Yvonne

Yvonne Henry is a counsellor with seven years' experience who helps adults navigate heavy emotional challenges. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. People who come to her often worry about anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, grief and loss, and other life transitions.

Her style is warm and person-centred. She works alongside clients to make sense of difficult feelings and find practical ways to feel steadier. Sessions can include talking things through, building coping tools, and using mindfulness exercises to calm the nervous system.

Yvonne combines a range of approaches to suit each person. She uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take manageable steps. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot thinking patterns and test new behaviours. Psychodynamic reflection and client-centred listening may be drawn on to understand repeated relationship patterns.

She also offers space to include Christian faith and prayer when clients want that element, or to keep sessions purely therapeutic when they prefer. The choice is always led by the client’s needs and preferences.

Yvonne works with a broad set of concerns including addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger, career questions and coping with long-term health issues. She accepts international clients and works in English.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice painful thoughts without getting ruled by them and to act in line with what matters to them. It can help when someone feels stuck, overwhelmed or unsure how to move forward.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It helps people test unhelpful thinking patterns and practise different behaviours to reduce anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises being heard and understood. The counsellor offers empathic listening and reflection so people can explore difficult feelings and find their own solutions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods collaboratively. This means plans can change as therapy progresses to better match what helps.

Session formats are not specified in the original profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow sessions from wherever you are based. Some people prefer shorter check-ins by audio, while others choose longer video conversations or regular weekly meetings; discuss what suits your routine and needs when you first meet.
