About Yvette

Yvette Simmons is a person-centred integrative therapeutic counsellor who provides online and telephone counselling to adult clients. She creates a calm, empathetic environment where people can explore thoughts and feelings from both the past and the present, and she helps clients who feel overwhelmed, disconnected from their values, or unsure about their life purpose. Yvette works collaboratively to build clarity and self-awareness, drawing on a strengths-based approach and using empathy, kindness, and non-judgement to help clients feel heard and supported.

Yvette practices in an integrative way, tailoring interventions to the needs of each person rather than relying on a single method. That flexible approach enables her to address a wide range of concerns, from low self-esteem and mood changes to relationship difficulties and coping with life transitions. She also works with adult students in further and higher education, offering support for exam stress, homesickness, procrastination, financial worries, problem gambling, substance misuse, and adapting to student life with long-term illness or disability.

Yvette holds the BACP credential, reflecting professional standing in counselling practice. She encourages clients to recognise their value and purpose, and she provides a compassionate space where people can feel seen, heard, and empowered to make meaningful changes.

Approach-Focused Online Therapy with Flexible Access

Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of the process, offering empathetic listening and acceptance so individuals can explore their feelings and identify what matters to them. This approach supports work on self-esteem, life purpose, and coping with change by encouraging personal insight and self-directed growth.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and achievable goals, helping clients build on their existing strengths to address specific problems such as stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, or workplace concerns. It is useful when clients want focused, goal-oriented sessions that move toward tangible improvements.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative work between client and therapist. Yvette will work with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the approach as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy schedules or limited local options. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, clients can access licensed professionals and therapists from home or while travelling, maintain continuity of care, and select the communication style that feels most comfortable and convenient.
