About Yvonne
Yvonne Harrison is a counsellor and counselling lecturer with 11 years of professional experience. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, known as BACP. She offers calm, practical support to people feeling overwhelmed by depression, stress and anxiety.
She helps people cope with trauma and abuse and works with those managing grief and loss. She also supports people dealing with low self-esteem, motivation issues and confidence setbacks.
Background and approach
Additional focus areas include obsessive-compulsive behaviours, self-harm and sexual assault and abuse, and she has experience working with people who are hearing impaired. Her approach is rooted in Client-Centred Therapy, which means she focuses on what each person brings to the room. She listens without judgement and helps people find their own answers.
Sessions aim to build on strengths and make small, manageable changes. Yvonne describes the person as the expert in their own life and treats clients as partners in the work. She encourages practical steps alongside reflective conversation.
The aim is to make coping skills more reliable and everyday life easier to manage. Based in the United Kingdom, she combines teaching and supervision work with direct counselling. People who choose to work with her meet someone who values dignity, respect and steady support while they work through difficult experiences.

Approaches Yvonne lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Because the work is collaborative, finding the right approach happens together. The counsellor will discuss what helps most and adapt sessions around personal goals and preferences. That might mean more practical problem-solving on some weeks and deeper listening on others.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video calls let people see facial cues and have a fuller conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter, flexible exchanges that can fit into a busy day.
Using these formats makes therapy easier to fit around work, family and mobility needs, and it helps people keep continuity when life is unpredictable. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can tailor the mix of formats to what works best for each person.
