Yvonne Henry trained as a counsellor and has practised for seven years supporting adults through difficult times. She holds BACP accreditation, which reflects professional membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Yvonne offers calm, direct support for people who feel overwhelmed by life.

Her style is warm and person-centred. She listens first and helps people make sense of painful thoughts and feelings. Conversations focus on what is practical and useful now, with space to explore deeper patterns when needed.

Background and approach

Yvonne uses a mix of approaches to meet different needs. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot thinking patterns, acceptance and commitment techniques to build valued action, and psychodynamic thinking to look at repeated relational themes. Mindfulness practices are used to help people come back to the present.

She works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career questions and coping with big life changes.

Additional areas of focus include abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, autism and Asperger syndrome, chronic illness and caregiver stress, and body image and codependency issues. Sessions can include discussion, practical exercises and short between-session tasks. The pace is set by the client, and treatment aims are agreed together.

Yvonne supports people who want clear tools as well as those wanting reflective therapy that looks at underlying patterns.

How Yvonne’s approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values rather than getting stuck in avoidance. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and for coping with life changes. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on a non-judgemental relationship where the counsellor listens and reflects, helping people feel understood and find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical techniques to reduce distress and change unhelpful patterns. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Yvonne will discuss options and adapt techniques to what suits each person’s goals and preferences. The plan is agreed collaboratively and reviewed as therapy progresses so adjustments can be made. Online formats make regular contact easier to fit into busy lives. Video calls are close to face-to-face sessions, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options increase flexibility and can help people keep therapy consistent when travel or schedules make in-person sessions difficult.
