Background and approach
Yvonne uses a client-centred approach. That means sessions are shaped around each person’s concerns and goals. She listens without judgement and helps people recognise their own strengths.
Sessions aim to be practical and down to earth rather than full of jargon. Her style is collaborative and paced to the individual. She encourages people to set gentle steps towards change and works at a speed that suits them.
Conversations often focus on what matters most now and on building confidence to manage difficult feelings. As a counselling lecturer and supervisor she draws on a range of experience from practice and teaching. That background helps her explain things clearly and offer straightforward coping ideas.
She supports people who want to talk through past hurts as well as those trying to manage current stress. People choosing Yvonne can expect a calm, respectful space to reflect and to practise new ways of coping. She aims to empower clients to make lasting changes while recognising each person’s pace and priorities.

How Yvonne works online
The aim is to make sessions feel like a guided conversation rather than a lecture. The therapist offers steady support and helps people try out small steps towards change. Decisions about how to work together are made jointly, taking goals and personal preferences into account.
When considering online therapy, check which session formats are available before booking. The therapist can help you choose the best way to meet, based on your needs and daily routine. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits you. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the client-centred approach to remote work so the focus remains on listening, exploring what matters, and building practical coping strategies.
