About me
Hello, I’m Yvonni, a pluralistic and integrative counsellor offering online therapy via Zoom in both English and Greek.
In my practice, I offer a safe and confidential space to reflect, heal, make sense of things, and learn coping skills. I understand how life’s transitions and pressures can lead to anxiety, low mood, or a loss of confidence.
Having lived and worked abroad, I also understand the complex emotions that come with identity, self-esteem, belonging, and adapting to new environments. You may be struggling with relationship difficulties, trauma, burnout, loss of direction, or the emotional impact of major changes. Whether you’re facing major life decisions, self-doubt, self-esteem issues, stress, feeling lost or lonely, therapy can help you regain clarity, confidence, and direction at your own pace.
Who I work with
I work primarily with adults managing:
- Anxiety and stress
- Depression and low mood
- Low self-esteem and self-worth
- Relationship problems and separation
- Work burnout and perfectionism
- Cross-cultural transitions and adjustments
- Emotional or narcissistic abuse
- Trauma and loss
- Students adjusting to Uni/life challenges
Many of my clients come to therapy wanting to feel calmer, more self-assured, and more connected to themselves and others. You don’t have to face these challenges alone - therapy can help you make sense of what’s happening and move forward with greater resilience.
How I work
My approach is pluralistic and integrative, meaning therapy is tailored to suit your goals and preferences. I work collaboratively with my clients, cultivating open communication for our work together. You bring your experiences and emotions, and I bring psychological insight and tools to support the changes you want to see in your life.
I mainly but not exclusively draw from:
- CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) for practical coping tools and self-awareness
- Person-Centred Therapy for empathy, safety, and trust
- Psychodynamic Therapy for exploring deeper patterns and emotional roots
- ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) and Mindfulness for grounding and emotional regulation
- Emotion-Focused and Existential approaches for self-reflection and growth
I also work from a trauma-informed perspective, offering a non-judgemental space for people from all cultural, neurodiverse, gender, and relationship backgrounds.
What to expect in your initial appointment
Your first 50-minute session is an introduction to my work, offered at a reduced fee of £25, with no obligation to continue. We’ll discuss what’s brought you to counselling, what you’d like to gain from therapy, and how we might work together. Many people find that this first conversation helps clarify what to expect and whether my approach feels right for them.
Ongoing sessions last 50 minutes at £70. I offer both open-ended work and shorter six & twelve-session blocks for those with specific goals or limited time.

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.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Further information
Therapy is not just about coping - it’s also about rediscovering clarity, confidence, and healthy connections with ourselves and others. Our sessions will offer a reflective and collaborative space where we can explore what’s been holding you back and begin to move toward meaningful change.
Many people tell me they wish they had started sooner. If you’re here, you’ve already taken that important first step!
