About Yvon
Yvon Yagbazia helps people who are struggling with trauma, abuse, low self-esteem, depression, stress, anxiety, anger and compassion fatigue. He offers counselling in English and French and works within a mental health and counselling service in North London. He brings four years of experience and holds BACP registration, which is shown as BACP in his credentials.
Yvon uses a personal, exploratory approach in sessions. He encourages people to look at their life story and current difficulties.
Background and approach
Conversations aim to be non-judgemental and to reduce the shame that often follows painful experiences. His practice draws on client-centred principles that put the person’s experience first. Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual, with the counsellor following the client’s pace and concerns.
He also integrates psychodynamic ideas to help people understand recurring patterns that affect feelings and relationships. People come to him for a wide range of concerns beyond the core specialties. These include issues such as attachment questions, adoption and foster care, autism spectrum matters, body image, chronic illness, caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems and sexual culture topics like BDSM and kink.
Yvon aims to create a space where clients can speak openly and feel heard. He describes therapy as a collaborative process of understanding personal history and finding practical ways to ease distress. To begin, prospective clients are invited to use the platform’s Start Therapy button and complete a brief matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Yvon works online
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at repeating patterns and how past experiences shape current feelings and reactions. It can be useful for trauma, attachment questions and understanding long-standing emotional difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Yvon will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you can decide which methods to focus on. That discussion is collaborative and may change as therapy progresses.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and reduce travel time. Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Registered or accredited professionals can use remote sessions to provide steady, ongoing support and to help maintain momentum between appointments.
