About Yvonne
Yvonne Henry is a counsellor with seven years of practice who helps adults facing stress, anxiety and life transitions. She holds BACP registration, which is listed as her professional credential. Her approach is calm and person-centred, and she aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable for someone who is worried or unsure.
She works with a wide range of concerns including low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, grief and loss, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, and sleep or eating worries.
Background and approach
Yvonne also supports people dealing with parenting strain, anger, career pressures, bipolar challenges and coping with big life changes. Her practice takes a flexible view of underlying issues. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is offered to help clients clarify values and build small, meaningful actions. She also draws on client-centred listening and psychodynamic ideas to understand long-standing patterns. Yvonne can integrate Christian faith and prayer into sessions when a client requests it, or she can keep the focus strictly therapeutic.
Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients for online work based in the United Kingdom. People meet her for different reasons – from attachment and adoption concerns to chronic illness or caregiver stress. In sessions she aims to listen closely, reflect what’s happening, and work with each person to build practical steps toward feeling steadier.
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose small actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and practising practical changes to feel better in daily life. It often helps with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a non-judgemental listening stance where the counsellor follows the person’s lead and offers empathy and reflection to build understanding.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest ways of working. That choice is collaborative and can change as the work progresses, so approaches are tried and adjusted to fit the client’s needs.
Online sessions offer several practical benefits. Video calls let people see facial cues and maintain a therapy rhythm similar to in-person work. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short check-ins, flexible scheduling or people who express themselves better in writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel while keeping the focus on progress and practical steps.
