About Yvonne
Yvonne Henry is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has seven years' clinical experience working with adults. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, grief and loss, and concerns common in adolescence and young adulthood. She also supports those coping with addictions, trauma, parenting challenges, sleep and eating struggles, and major life changes.
Her style is person-centred and collaborative. Sessions focus on talking through thoughts and feelings, making sense of difficult moments, and building practical ways to manage day-to-day strain. She can include Christian faith and prayer in sessions when clients want that, or keep the work purely therapeutic if preferred.
Yvonne draws on a mix of approaches to suit different needs. You may use techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy to spot and change unhelpful patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas can help with living alongside difficult thoughts and feelings. Mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas are available where they fit the work.
She works with a wide range of concerns linked to attachment, adoption and foster care, ageing and caregiver stress, chronic illness and body image, and issues such as codependency and commitment fears. The focus is on what feels most relevant to the individual at that time, and on simple tools that can be used in everyday life.
Sessions are offered in English and Yvonne accepts international clients. Before booking, readers should confirm the current session options and practical arrangements to make sure they suit their circumstances.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them. It helps people live in line with what matters to them while reducing attempts to avoid hard emotions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour, and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns and support better routines. Client‑Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions and emphasises a respectful, non-directive way of working that helps people feel understood.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will check in about your goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit those aims. Over the first few sessions you will try techniques and notice what helps, then adapt the mix of methods based on what feels useful.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and reduce travel time. They can suit short check‑ins, focused skill practice, or longer conversations depending on what you need. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking to be clear on how sessions are delivered and what will work best for your routine.
