Yvonne Henry, BACP

Yvonne Henry is a counsellor with seven years' experience supporting adults through difficult moments. She works with people facing anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, bereavement, and other life changes. Yvonne aims to make the first step feel manageable and straightforward for someone who is worried or unsure.

Her style is warm and person-centred. She listens first and helps clients make sense of thoughts and feelings. Conversations are collaborative - the client’s priorities guide the work. Practical tools are offered to help manage overwhelm and build confidence.

Yvonne uses a mix of approaches, including cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness, acceptance and commitment strategies, and psychodynamic thinking. She draws on these to help people change unhelpful habits and notice patterns that keep problems repeating. Sessions can include thinking about daily routines and small behaviour changes alongside talking through emotions.

Faith can be included when a client wants it. Yvonne can integrate Christian prayer and reflection into sessions, or focus purely on therapeutic work if that suits better. The choice is always left to the person attending.

Yvonne works in the United Kingdom and offers therapy in English. She accepts international clients. People usually start by completing a short questionnaire and scheduling a first session to see if the approach feels right.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Yvonne commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centred Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and values, helping people make choices that matter even when feelings are difficult. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises a respectful, non-judgemental relationship and follows what the person brings to the session. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers simple strategies to change unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is a shared task. Yvonne discusses your goals and preferences and adapts methods as you learn what helps. This means sessions can combine listening, practical exercises, mindfulness practices, and steps to alter everyday habits so you feel steadier between appointments.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue work when they are living abroad. The therapist will talk through which way of meeting suits your routine and needs during the initial scheduling process.
