Yvonne Harrison , BACP

Yvonne Harrison is an accredited member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and practices as a counsellor, counselling lecturer, and supervisor in the United Kingdom. She brings 11 years of professional experience to her work and has helped people navigate stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, low motivation, self-esteem challenges, and depression. Her additional focus areas include supporting clients who are hearing impaired, addressing obsessions, compulsions and OCD, self-harm, and survivors of sexual assault and abuse.

Working from a client-centered perspective, she believes that each person is the expert on their own story and that existing strengths can be mobilized to meet difficult challenges. She acknowledges the courage required to seek change and aims to offer support and empowerment as clients take steps toward a more fulfilling life. As both a practising counsellor and a supervisor and lecturer, she blends practical clinical work with teaching and mentorship to support people on their journey toward greater confidence and wellbeing.

Client-Centered Care and Online Therapeutic Support

Client-Centered Therapy is the primary approach used, focusing on the client's perspective and innate capacity for growth. In this approach the therapist offers empathy, acceptance, and respect while encouraging clients to explore their feelings and make choices that align with their values - it is often helpful for issues such as low self-esteem, depression, and anxiety.

Yvonne approaches therapy collaboratively, working with each person to identify which methods feel most helpful for their situation. Finding the right therapeutic style is part of the process, and she will partner with clients to tailor sessions to their needs, goals, and personal preferences in a supportive way.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for scheduling and access from different locations. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity of care, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable, while allowing licensed professionals and therapists to deliver consistent, focused support.
