About Yvonne

Yvonne Wood is a Person-Centred counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the UK professional body for counselling practitioners. With a degree in Person-Centred Counselling and five years of professional experience, she brings a calm, empathic presence to her work with adults from diverse backgrounds.

She works in private practice and also offers volunteer support to people who have experienced childhood sexual abuse and trauma. Her approach is rooted in the Person-Centred tradition - which emphasises respect for the client’s experience and the belief that people are the experts on their own lives - while drawing on complementary methods when they suit a client’s needs.

Yvonne helps clients explore difficult emotions, recognise recurring patterns, and reconnect with their values and sense of self. She supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and family difficulties, self-esteem and identity concerns, and related issues such as stress, addictions, and caregiver strain.

Her aim is to create a compassionate, non-judgemental space where people can begin to make sense of painful experiences at a pace that feels right for them. Yvonne is based in the United Kingdom and provides therapy in English.

Therapeutic approaches and online therapy options

Yvonne works from a Person-Centred framework, which focuses on understanding each person’s experience and supporting self-directed growth through empathy, acceptance, and active listening. This approach helps with issues around identity, self-esteem, and relationship difficulties by encouraging clients to explore their values and choices.

She also integrates Attachment-Based ideas to explore how early relationships influence current patterns - this can be useful for clients dealing with intimacy-related issues, attachment concerns, and relationship challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used when practical tools to shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns are helpful, for example with anxiety, stress, or coping difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is decided collaboratively. Yvonne works with each person to identify goals, consider different methods, and adapt the work to fit their needs, priorities, and preferences.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people with busy lives, mobility limits, or caring responsibilities. These options make it easier to attend regular sessions, try different formats, and maintain continuity of care from wherever clients are located, while working with licensed professionals and therapists trained in these approaches.
