She has 11 years of experience supporting people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and challenges with self-esteem. She approaches meetings with respect and patience and aims to help people feel heard and understood.

Her experience includes supporting people affected by obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviours, self-harm, and sexual assault and abuse. She also has experience working with clients who are hearing impaired, offering adjustments to make communication clearer and more comfortable.
Yvonne teaches counselling and supervises other counsellors, which keeps her practice reflective and up to date.

In sessions she aims to create a calm atmosphere where people can speak at their own pace.
If you are unsure how to begin, Yvonne encourages a simple first step. She supports clients in naming what matters, setting small goals, and testing new ways of coping between sessions.
How Client-Centred Work Translates Online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person and their experience. It involves the counsellor listening without judgement, reflecting what is said, and helping the person find their own solutions. This approach can help with stress, anxiety, low mood, grief, and recovery after abuse by creating space to understand feelings and priorities.In practice this means sessions are led by the client's concerns and pace. The counsellor pays attention to what matters to the person and supports them in setting small goals and testing changes between sessions. Deciding which way of working suits someone is a collaborative process that will be reviewed as therapy progresses.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow a shorter check-in if that is needed. It can also help people remain in contact with a counsellor while they manage work, study, or family commitments.
