Yvonne Cochrane , BACP

Yvonne Cochrane is a qualified integrative-relational counsellor and psychotherapist who has been practising since 2018. She holds BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - reflecting her commitment to recognised professional standards. With six years of clinical experience, Yvonne offers a compassionate, client-centred approach that recognises each person’s journey as unique.

She provides a warm and supportive space where adults and young people can explore anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, identity questions, life transitions, grief, and unresolved trauma at a pace that feels right. Her work draws on a range of therapeutic methods tailored to individual needs, while placing particular value on the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for meaningful change.

Yvonne emphasises trust, authenticity, and connection, helping clients to make sense of their experiences, identify unhelpful patterns, and develop new coping strategies. She aims to meet people where they are and to walk alongside them through times of feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or in search of greater self-understanding. Her practice is non-judgemental and focused on empowering clients to make changes that matter to them.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Yvonne integrates Client-Centred Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy into her work to help clients explore and resolve emotional difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathic, non-directive support that encourages individuals to explore feelings and discover their own solutions - it can be especially helpful for low self-esteem, relationship concerns, and coping with life changes. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past relationships and unconscious patterns shape present behaviour and emotions - this approach can assist with attachment issues, recurring relationship difficulties, and unresolved grief.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Yvonne works together with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adapting methods over time to find the best fit for each person’s needs and aims.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication preferences. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and other commitments while allowing therapists to tailor their approach so clients can continue making progress from wherever they are located within the United Kingdom.
