Counsellor, MNCPS Acc.
I am a person centred counsellor and also have a qualification in cognitive behavioural therapy. I believe counselling is a journey of self-discovery and personal development that is a continual process both during and after therapy has taken place. Through counselling, a person will learn about themselves in a way they would never intend or maybe expect. As a counsellor I will be alongside you on your therapeutic journey and create a safe space that is respectful and non-biased to allow you to discover yourself and work through any issues that may be troubling you.

Hi I'm Yvonne, I'm a fully qualified Person Centred Counsellor and Clinical Supervisor currently in private practice in St Helens At some point in our life we may experience periods where we need additional support to manage a difficult situation, work through a particular issue, or understand something from our past. This at times can lead us to feel alone and not knowing which way to turn. Whilst friends and family can be a huge source of love and support, at times we need someone impartial to help make sense of things.

Whether your issues are from the past, ongoing in the present or worries about the future, I've got you covered. If you need a safe space to figure out exactly what it is you need from life, a non-judgemental ear to listen without jumping in to add an opinion, a place where you can be yourself, hear yourself and learn to love yourself again...I'm your person. Whether you're depressed or anxious, struggling to reach your goals or are somewhere in-between, lets figure it out together.

Hi. Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, low, stuck — or like you’ve lost yourself in patterns of putting everyone else first? You might look fine on the outside, but inside you’re exhausted, tangled, and carrying too much alone. I’m an experienced counsellor with 15 years’ practice. I offer a steady, compassionate space where you can slow things down, make sense of what you’re feeling, and understand what your emotions are trying to tell you — because feelings don’t just happen to us; they shape how we cope, choose, and relate.

Connection—to ourselves and our loved ones—can feel essential, yet incredibly hard at times. We want to communicate without arguing, rebuild trust, or adapt to major life events with ease. I work with couples and individuals navigating change—especially new parents, and those healing from trauma, loss, or infidelity—to reconnect with themselves and each other. Even happy transitions can leave couples feeling like they're speaking different languages, and closeness feels out of reach. Trauma can affect our whole identity and confidence. Together, we work to rebuild trust, restore communication, and help you feel understood again.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.

When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.

How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
