About me

I am a Registered Psychotherapist and certified coach with experience in helping people with low self-esteem, relationship problems, lack of support, anxiety, loneliness, depression, phobias,  bereavement and regrets. 

So, whether your difficulties stem from past traumas or whether you struggle to move forward in life, nothing is too big or too small to move through. I would love to help you imagine a greater possibility for yourself, and then support you in achieving that possibility.

In addition to listening with an attentive and empathetic ear, I also combine Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness based Meditation and body focus, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT, tapping). I find these three modalities work beautifully together which enable people to overcome a vast array of issues that hold them back.

Using the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT, Tapping) is a particularly fast and effective way to make changes for yourself. I have been using this technique with my clients for over 19 years and it never ceases to amaze me. My sense is that when we feel overwhelmed, we often cannot see the solutions that are within our grasp and thus we remain stuck. I also firmly believe that many of life’s problems can be alleviated by sharing them with someone who is trained to listen or I can offer you tools to manage your stress and overwhelm. Becoming more self aware is a powerful road to self-mastery. I believe through our work together you can find your answers.

Because I have trained as a coach as well as a psychotherapist, I can work with you in a variety of ways that is best suited to your needs. But whichever way we go, I believe that together we can get your life on track so you can live your life as fully as possible.

I work out of a Wellness Clinic in Paignton which will hopefully help you to feel relaxed as soon as you walk through the door. Alternatively, I offer online sessions via Skype or Zoom.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.

Testimonials

It's good to be reminded that the answers are within us already! I think booking a few sessions galvanised me to make the changes that  need and reasserting some control.     Nancy.

Yvonne is truly amazing at what she does. I've seen many councillors over the years, but Yvonne by far the best. Her extensive education and knowledge have helped me through many different issues. I struggled when we lost my father in law passed and she helped me learn how to manage the grief. When I developed a phobia of the motorway after an accident she used EFT tapping to help train my brain not to be scared. Not many councillors are aware of EFT, but I can attest it does work. I feel extremely lucky to have found Yvonne as she has been key in my recovery and moving forwards so I can live my life. Yvonne is truly fantastic at what she does.

It’s always difficult to confide in a stranger about your deepest fears, struggles you face daily, or simply what step you need to take next in order to accomplish your aims in life. Yvonne took the time to understand where I was starting out at, and used targeted and personalized exercises to help me reach my goals. She was always professional and compassionate, while being the outside perspective I needed to help decide which path was best for me. Yvonne always helped me to take a step back and really evaluate what was happening with me and my surrounds. By setting small and manageable tasks for each session together we were able to work towards reaching my objective and found ways for me to sustain what worked best on my own going forward.
