About Yvonne

Yvonne Henry is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of experience. She works with adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationships, family matters, grief, depression, addictions and anger. She also supports people facing issues with self-esteem, sleep, eating, parenting and major life changes.

Yvonne uses straightforward, person-centred conversations to help people make sense of what they are feeling. Sessions focus on looking at thoughts and reactions, and on building simple tools to manage intense emotions. She can include Christian faith and prayer in sessions when a client wants that included.

Her style is collaborative. She listens, reflects what she hears, and helps clients try small steps between sessions. That can mean practising new ways of responding when anger or frustration builds, or testing out different ways of talking with a partner or family member.

Yvonne draws on a range of approaches when it fits the person’s needs. She uses cognitive and mindfulness techniques to address unhelpful thinking and bodily stress. She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat across relationships.

People come to her when life feels overwhelming and they want clearer ways to cope. She supports practical changes alongside exploring long-standing issues. To begin, clients follow an online matching process and then arrange their first session.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Yvonne commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and values, and on taking committed actions that matter despite difficult feelings. CBT looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and offers practical exercises to reduce unhelpful reactions and manage worry or anger.

She treats choice of approach as a collaborative question. The therapist will help clients test what works best for their situation, goals and preferences and adjust methods as the work progresses. That way the approach matches what a person needs rather than being fixed in advance.

Confirm the current session formats before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit counselling into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let someone join from a different location when circumstances change. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can explain which formats they offer and help arrange sessions that fit daily life.
