About Yvon
Yvon Yagbazia is a psychodynamic psychotherapist and counsellor based in the United Kingdom. He works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma and related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and French and draw on a conversational, reflective style aimed at making sense of current problems and past hurts.
He describes therapy as a personal process of looking closer at life and history. In sessions he aims to create a space where people can speak openly without feeling judged.
Background and approach
The focus is on understanding thoughts, emotions and patterns that get in the way of feeling better. Yvon combines psychodynamic perspectives with a person-centred attitude. That means he pays attention to how past experiences shape present reactions while keeping the session grounded in what matters to the client now.
He also brings experience from life and performance coaching to support practical steps when helpful. He currently works in a mental health and counselling service in North London and has four years of experience in the field.
His background means he is used to supporting people with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, self-esteem, anger, compassion fatigue, chronic illness, and relationship and communication problems. Practical arrangements are discussed at the start so sessions fit the person’s needs.
Yvon encourages anyone who has struggled to ask for help to consider a first appointment as a small, manageable step toward feeling less stuck.
How his approaches work online
Yvon uses Client-Centred Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy in his online practice. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person, helping people gain clarity and confidence by being heard. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past experiences influence current feelings and behaviours, which can help when anxiety or patterns keep repeating.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. He will talk with you about your goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and together you will decide how to proceed. That process is collaborative and can change as needs shift over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy around daily life. Video calls are close to face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging can work for ongoing support between appointments. These options provide flexibility so people can choose what fits their routine and comfort.
