Yvette Simmons is a person centred Integrative Therapeutic Counsellor who provides online and telephone counselling for adult clients.
She offers a safe, non-judgemental space for people to talk about things that may be troubling them, whether those concerns come from past experiences or current life circumstances. When someone feels overwhelmed, disconnected from their values, or struggles to find meaning, she works with them to build clarity and self-awareness.
Working in an integrative way, Yvette takes a holistic view of the issues presented in sessions and brings together different therapeutic approaches to suit each individual. She emphasises clients' strengths and uses empathy, kindness, and a non-judgemental stance to support and empower them, with the aim of ensuring they feel heard.
Yvette also supports adult students in Further Education and Higher Education who are dealing with exam stress, relationship issues, homesickness, procrastination, debt, problem gambling, substance misuse, or adapting to student life with a long-term illness or disability. She invites people to recognise that they are valued, that they have purpose, and that they are seen and heard.
Online therapy can be an effective option for many common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes. Research and practice indicate that, for these issues, remote sessions can offer outcomes comparable to traditional face-to-face therapy.
One clear benefit is the flexibility it provides - people can meet with a therapist in the format that suits them best, whether that is a video call, a phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to choose the mode of communication that feels most comfortable.
Each therapist involved in online work is a licensed professional, and if someone feels they would prefer a different match, it is possible to switch therapists. For many people, the combination of accessibility, choice of communication, and professional support makes online therapy a practical and effective avenue for addressing everyday mental health and wellbeing concerns.
