About Yvonne
Yvonne Cochrane is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and relationship problems. She supports those facing grief, life changes, workplace strain and questions about identity or life purpose. Yvonne uses a calm, person-focused style that aims to make talking about hard things feel easier.
She works from a client-centred stance, meeting people where they are and letting the pace suit them. Her background also includes psychodynamic ideas that look at patterns from the past and how they shape current feelings and behaviour. Sessions focus on understanding what matters to the person and trying out new ways of coping.
Yvonne holds BACP as a credential, which is listed with the details supplied. She has practised since 2018 and brings six years of experience to her work. This experience includes supporting people with attachment and communication problems, divorce and separation, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
In conversation she emphasises the relationship between counsellor and client as the core of the work. That relationship is used to explore feelings of isolation, emptiness or midlife crisis and to find practical steps forward. People can expect a warm, non-judgemental approach and a focus on small, real changes.
For those concerned about work and wellbeing, she includes career and workplace issues alongside more personal themes. To begin, clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling sessions according to availability.
How client-centred and psychodynamic work helps online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It involves listening carefully, reflecting what is said, and following the client’s pace to build understanding and self-direction. This approach suits people dealing with stress, low self-esteem, relationship worries or life transitions.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns that come from past experiences and affect present feelings and choices. It can help when someone feels stuck, keeps repeating the same relationship problems, or wants to understand deeper emotional themes like attachment and emptiness.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will explore your goals, preferences and current needs and suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process, and adjustments are made as progress and new issues arise.
Practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions around work, reducing travel time and making it easier to attend during busy weeks.
