About us
Your Emotional Support Service (YESS) is a charity based in Uttoxeter, Staffordshire. We offer support to people of all ages who require specialist therapeutic interventions to manage their emotional health and wellbeing. We provide a range of talking and creative therapies that can be delivered on an individual basis or as part of a group. Services are delivered remotely, and also from our base in Uttoxeter, as well as a number of schools and other community settings.
We have been operating in the area for over twelve years, and our team has a wealth of experience across children and adult settings. YESS is an innovative provider, offering a mix of individual therapy and group work, workshops, training events and staff supervision.
We are passionate about mental health and wellbeing and we want to make our services as accessible as possible. Equality and diversity are important at YESSS and we are committed to ensuring that we will consider your religion, disability, sexuality, and gender to ensure that our services are available and accessible for all....this is YOUR emotional support service.

The team is made up of dance movement psychotherapists, art therapists, person centered counsellors, integrative counsellors, mindfulness practitioner. Being able to offer such a diverse set of evidence-based treatments means that clients can be sure that we will be able to offer something that responds to your individual needs.
Member organisations *
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
