About Yvette
Yvette Simmons helps adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about their next steps. She introduces a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, mood problems or changes at work and in life. Yvette uses clear, simple language so conversations stay grounded and practical.
Her first aim is to help people feel heard and understood. Yvette practises Client-Centred Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to match what each person needs.
Background and approach
That means sessions often begin by listening closely to what matters most to the individual, then moving towards small, achievable steps. She encourages people to notice their strengths and to build on them in everyday life. Her approach is flexible and adapts as issues change.
She supports people dealing with low self-esteem, relationship strain, addictions, career dilemmas and transitions. Additional focus includes body image, guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose and multicultural concerns. Yvette has six years of experience and holds BACP accreditation, which means she is recognised by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
She offers help through several formats so people can choose what fits their routine. Sessions are available in English and open to people in the United Kingdom and beyond. The work aims to be practical while also making room for reflection, so people can take clearer steps towards feeling more in control and connected to what matters to them.

Online support
Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps that move a person towards clearer goals. In an online session this often becomes a short plan or experiment to try between meetings, which can help with stress, career decisions and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. Conversations shape the plan, and methods can change as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility and easier access. Video calls let people see facial cues and have deeper conversations. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or need brief, on-the-go support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around study, work and busy days.
