About Yvonne

Yvonne Henry is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with seven years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with adults who are managing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, bereavement, and other life changes. Sessions include a focus on practical coping and understanding what feels overwhelming.

She uses a person-centred style that keeps conversations straightforward. Sessions aim to make sense of recurring thoughts and feelings and to build practical tools for managing them. She can include Christian faith and prayer in conversations when a client wants that to be part of their support.

Yvonne draws on a mix of approaches to fit each person’s situation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ideas help with changing unhelpful thought patterns. Mindfulness techniques are used to notice difficult feelings without getting caught up in them. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are brought in to help people commit to values-based actions even when emotions feel strong.

People usually work on small, achievable steps between sessions. Practical tasks and reflections are common, alongside talking through experiences. The intent is to help clients feel more able to cope with daily pressures and relationships.

She works with adults aged 18 and over and will respect whether clients want faith included or prefer a purely therapeutic focus. International clients who can work in English are supported, and session logistics are agreed before booking.

How Yvonne uses therapeutic approaches online

Yvonne draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside person-centred work. CBT focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioural changes to reduce anxiety and improve sleep. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult emotions, clarify what matters to them, and take committed action despite uncomfortable feelings.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Yvonne will talk with clients about goals and preferences and try methods that fit the person. That collaborative process helps decide whether CBT tasks, ACT experiments, or calmer talking and listening will be most useful.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking because they are not specified here. Online work can make sessions easier to fit around daily life, for example shorter check-ins on busier days or video conversations when seeing body language helps. It also allows people to join from different locations and supports international clients who can work in English.
