Yvonne Kidman Fowler, BACP, NCPS

Yvonne Kidman Fowler is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS in the United Kingdom with nine years of practice. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and parenting pressures, addiction concerns, low self-esteem and issues linked to trauma and abuse.

She offers a straightforward, person-focused way of talking through problems. Sessions are aimed at helping people sort through feelings that feel confusing or overwhelming. She listens, checks what matters to the person, and then suggests practical steps to try between sessions.

Yvonne uses approaches that pay attention to emotions and relationships. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships affect current feelings. She also uses client-centred ways of working that let people lead the topics they need to talk about.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is part of her practice too, which looks at values and actions alongside difficult thoughts. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps when strong emotions and patterns in relationships are getting in the way of everyday life.

Her aim is to help people regain a clearer sense of direction and to reduce the daily weight of parenting or family strain. People who feel stuck, ashamed, overwhelmed, or isolated can expect a calm, steady conversation about what to try next.

To begin, the usual first step is a short matching questionnaire followed by a scheduled session. Yvonne asks clients to confirm the current session options when booking so practical arrangements are clear.
