About Yvonne

Yvonne Henry is a counsellor who guides adults through difficult life moments. She holds BACP accreditation and has seven years of practice helping adults make sense of anxiety, stress, loss and relationship difficulties. She meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps that bring relief and clearer thinking.

Her style is warm and person-centred. Sessions involve talking through what feels most pressing, noticing patterns, and trying simple ways to change day-to-day responses. The work can include gentle reflection on past events and learning new coping skills for now.

Yvonne can also include Christian faith and prayer in sessions when people want that. If someone prefers to keep sessions strictly therapeutic, she follows that preference. That choice is always discussed together at the start.

She helps people tackle low self-esteem, overwhelm, grief, parenting strain, addictions, and many forms of relationship stress. Additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, attachment issues, chronic illness and caregiver stress, and body image concerns. Yvonne is comfortable supporting people through life transitions and complex emotional challenges.

Sessions combine listening with practical strategies from approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural tools and mindfulness. The aim is to leave people with clearer steps they can try between meetings. Yvonne works with adults aged 18 and over and offers sessions in English. International clients may be accepted; readers should confirm current session options before booking.

How counselling approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values, then taking small committed actions that match what matters to you. It can help with anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, depression and sleep problems. Client-Centred Therapy puts your experience at the heart of the session, offering non-judgemental listening so you can explore feelings and find your own path forward.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options with you and decide together what fits your needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process makes sure the focus matches what you want to change or understand.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find it straightforward to continue progress between sessions because tools and practices can be used where life actually happens.
