About Yvette

Yvette White is a counsellor and psychotherapist with 13 years of experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression and stress, and she also offers support for intimacy-related issues and relationship concerns. Yvette holds BACP registration, which is listed as a credential in her profile. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Her approach blends practical talking therapy with tools drawn from mindfulness and cognitive work. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Emotionally-Focused Therapy and client-centred ways of working guide how she listens and responds in sessions.

Yvette often helps people dealing with bereavement, trauma and abuse, chronic health challenges, and career or parenting stresses. She also supports those coping with grief, sleep problems, compassion fatigue and feelings of emptiness. Practical steps and short exercises are used alongside discussion to address everyday challenges.

People who come to her for intimacy or sexual concerns can expect direct but respectful conversation about their goals and worries. She frames sessions around what the person wants to change and sets realistic, step-by-step goals. The emphasis is on developing habits that fit into daily life rather than quick fixes.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to therapist availability. Fees vary by location and sessions are arranged through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How these approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful patterns in thinking and commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and life changes by focusing on clear small steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful cycles; it often helps with panic, sleep and depression. Attachment-Based Therapy concentrates on how early relationship patterns affect current ways of connecting and responding, and it can be useful for relationship and intimacy concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and Yvette treats this as a joint process. She will talk through goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first, then adjust the plan as you progress. The emphasis is on what feels useful to the person and on building practical habits that can be carried into everyday life.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions around work or caring responsibilities, as well as avoiding travel time. Online sessions can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins when needed or to meet when you are not in the same place as the counsellor. Because the biography does not list specific formats, confirm available session types before booking so you know how appointments are conducted.
