About Me
I’m Yvonne, a National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) Accredited Person Centred Counsellor working with both adults and young people.
There are times in our lives when life feels overwhelming. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, low mood, self-esteem, loss, change, relationship difficulties. or other challenges therapy offers a safe and supportive space to explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. My approach is to help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself, feel heard and supported, and move forward with greater confidence, resilience, and well being.
I offer a warm compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly and feel heard. Alongside my private practice, I have worked within a secondary school setting, counselling young people with the emotional, social and educational challenges they face.
