Background and approach
Yvonne encourages small steps that build motivation and self-worth. Her work covers trauma and abuse, addictions, eating issues, anger and ADHD-related difficulties. She also supports people dealing with relationship problems, separation, caregiver stress and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
LGBT matters, shame and issues around infidelity and forgiveness are also within her focus. Yvonne uses methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to suit different needs. These approaches help people notice what's important to them, understand relationship patterns, and name painful feelings so they lose some power.

How these approaches work online
Yvonne commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small meaningful steps. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings and acting in line with personal values, which can help with anxiety, low mood and feeling stuck.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how past and current relationships shape feelings and behaviour. These approaches help name patterns of connection or avoidance and offer ways to change how people relate to themselves and others, useful for loneliness, relationship pain and attachment issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods and choose what fits the person’s goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adapted as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video is useful for a fuller, face-to-face style; phone sessions can be quicker or easier when bandwidth is limited; text-based formats suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options give flexibility for different schedules and ways of communicating.
