About Yvonne

Yvonne Henry works with adults on problems such as anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, bereavement and loss, and issues affecting adolescents and young adults. She uses a collaborative, person-centred way of working and can include Christian faith and prayer in sessions when clients want that option. Yvonne is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has seven years' professional experience.

She begins by listening to what feels most pressing and then helps people make sense of their thoughts and feelings. Conversations look at practical coping strategies and ways to change unhelpful patterns. Sessions may also explore past experiences that continue to affect current relationships and choices.

Yvonne draws on a range of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas alongside client-centred work. That mix means she can use short-term concrete techniques or more reflective exploration depending on what a person prefers.

Faith can be included where it matters to the person, or the work can remain entirely psychological if that is preferred. Yvonne aims to work together with clients to agree goals and methods rather than imposing a single fixed plan.

She offers counselling from the United Kingdom and communicates in English. Her focus areas include grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy and eating or sleeping difficulties, as well as longer running issues such as attachment, codependency and chronic illness concerns.

People who choose to work with her can expect clear, practical discussion about next steps and tools to try between sessions.

How Yvonne uses therapeutic approaches in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is about noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and choosing actions that match what matters to you; it often helps with anxiety, avoidance and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and trying different coping techniques to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Client-centred work emphasises the person’s own priorities and experience, with the counsellor offering reflective listening and collaboration on goals.

Yvonne treats finding the right approach as a joint task. She will discuss what people want to achieve and which methods feel most useful, then adjust the mix of techniques and reflective work as the sessions progress. The aim is to agree a plan together and review it regularly.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family commitments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people continue with therapeutic work even when life circumstances change, while the counsellor helps adapt tools and exercises for remote use.
