About Yvonne
Yvonne Cochrane is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and depression. She works with issues like self-esteem, career concerns and coping with life changes. Yvonne uses a warm, client-centred way of working to make sessions feel approachable and practical.
She draws on Client-Centred Therapy alongside psychodynamic ideas to tailor support to each person. That means she focuses on building trust and understanding how past experiences influence present feelings and relationships. Conversations aim to help people spot unhelpful patterns and find clearer choices for moving forward.
Yvonne places value on an honest, accepting therapeutic relationship. Sessions tend to be steady and paced to suit the individual, allowing people to open up at a speed that feels manageable. She offers a calm environment where difficult topics can be talked through without pressure.
Across six years of practice she has worked with a broad range of concerns including attachment and communication problems, divorce and separation, loneliness, life purpose, and workplace stress. Her approach is practical as well as reflective, helping people try new ways of coping while making sense of their feelings.
If reaching out feels hard, Yvonne aims to make the first steps straightforward. She encourages people to think about what they most want to address and brings a steady, empathetic presence while they work on change.
How her approaches shape online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and responding with empathy. The aim is to help people feel understood so they can explore what matters most to them and make choices that fit their life. This approach is useful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship worries and coping with change.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past experiences and unconscious patterns affect current feelings and relationships. It helps people uncover recurring themes and long-standing emotional patterns, which can be useful for attachment issues, emptiness or difficulties with intimacy.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs to decide what feels most helpful. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.
If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking. Confirm the formats offered and how they fit your routine. Online work can make sessions easier to fit around work or family life, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when needed. It also lets you choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps you engage more comfortably.
