About

About Yvonne

Yvonne Henry is a counsellor with seven years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, and she supports adults who are carrying heavy emotions or facing difficult life moments. Many people come to her with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and parenting concerns.

Yvonne uses a warm, person-centred style that aims to make conversations straightforward and useful. She listens closely to what matters to each person and helps them make sense of thoughts and feelings.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on building simple tools to reduce overwhelm and increase resilience. Her background brings together a range of approaches including acceptance and commitment techniques, cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness practices and psychodynamic thinking. That mix lets her draw on practical exercises as well as deeper reflection about past patterns.

Yvonne can also include Christian faith and prayer in sessions when clients want that element. She treats spiritual beliefs as one option alongside therapeutic work, and the choice is always decided by the person attending. Typical issues she supports include relationships and family tensions, bereavement, addictions, sleep and eating concerns, anger, career stress and coping with big life changes.

She also works with more specific areas such as attachment, adoption and foster care, chronic illness, and body image. Sessions are offered in English and are available to people in the UK or international clients. The aim is to create a steady, approachable space where adults can explore what they need and leave with clearer ways to manage day-to-day pressures.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches for online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed, then make choices that match their values; it is useful for anxiety, stress and coping with change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; this is often helpful for depression, anxiety and sleep or eating difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience, creating space for them to find their own solutions and build confidence.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist listens to your goals and tries methods that fit your needs and preferences. Decisions about techniques are made collaboratively and can shift as sessions progress so that what you do in therapy matches what you want to change.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for a full conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a shorter break from work or need less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options help people fit therapy around family, work and travel commitments while keeping regular contact with a registered or accredited professional.
