Yvonne Kidman-Fowler

 I offer online and telephone counselling only.

 I have found that offering virtual counselling creates flexibility   for my clients.

 When engaging in online counselling there is no need to travel to an office. I am therefore able to make day and evening appointments.

You only need to find a comfortable place where you cannot be overheard at your convenience.

 Your time in counselling is entirely yours to be truly heard. 

Essentially, I respect you are an individual. No one answer fixes all. Therefore, my work is set at your pace, discussing your goals and walking your path to reach that goal.

 I fundamentally believe that counselling can enable the change between just surviving our life and thriving within it.

I work with a wide  range of issues.  With a deep understanding that our past experiences often effect our we see everyday life 

We are connected  beings  connected to our community our family and our feelings .Therefore, by simply looking at how we have made meaning of these experiences can create an entire new world for us to enjoy.

I have specialised in trauma, anxiety and depression for the last eight years with an integrative, psycho-therapeutic perspective that uses a wide range of tools.

I offer a fifteen-minute, phone or video call free of charge, for you to assess if I feel like I would be the right counsellor for you.  I understand that when you are talking about your feeling s and experiences you need to feel you can trust the person.

At this Time I am only able to offer online counselling.

I have found this makes it possible for me to fit around you, this can be Zoom or phone.

I am also Bupa registered. 

I am aware cost of living is a concern for many. However I strongly believe caring for our mental health is a vital. It is for this reason I offer concessionary rates and also make it possible to  attend counselling  fortnightly.  In essence,  our counselling work is designed to fit around you.

I put my clients first.  Essentially I respect you are an individual and there is no one cure fixes all.

Therefore my work is set at a pace that suits you. 

I fundamentally believe that counselling can enable the change between surviving and thriving within it

I work with a range of issues. Our past experience often affects how we experience our present.

Do you ever notice you have felt like this before? However  not sure how it happened again.

Therefore, If we explore how we began to make meaning of the world,  we gain our own power to make new choices in our present everyday life.

I have specialised in trauma, anxiety and depression for the last eight years with a integrative, psychotherapeutic  perspective that can use a range of skills to enable you in your own aims.

I offer a 15 min free video or phone assessment.

 This is where you are free to talk about what you would like from counselling. 

This is an important process as trusting your counsellor is an integral part of the process. Therefore this chat comes with no obligation to book further appointments.

Hi I'm Yvonne.

                   Perhaps you are thinking about counselling because you just don't feel like you anymore and struggling to do every day tasks. I offer a free 15 min conversation to see if I feel like the right fit counsellor for you. 

I understand that sometimes we need a place to talk and this needs to feel safe. A place where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, without fear of judgment. We all need an extra bit of help at times. Having chance to talk about out thoughts and feeling with a professional can help identify goals therefore, making it possible to achieve them. I always work without judgement or agenda to help you achieve your targets at your pace. I will be happy to hear from you to talk about this. 

I put my clients first. You are individual and I work at your pace meeting your needs.  On our first talk we can discuss what your goals are and how our sessions can most benefit you. These goals can be re visited anytime you choose.

As a integrative counsellor, I am aware there is no one fixes all. I offer a way of understanding why we behave in certain ways.  We are on a journey,  we grow and learn every step of the way.

I have worked for many years, with a range of issues, these include OCD, anxiety, low mood  grief and addictions.

Counselling can empower us with the knowledge to make choices about our future.

Hi I have worked with a wide range of issues in the years and see how doing everyday tasks can become overwhelming. 

These include depression, anxiety low mood, OCD.

When we are struggling in life it can be hard to talk to friends and family members about everything we feel.

This is where counselling can be helpful. To know you will not be judged.  The time is your own to be truly listened to.

I understand that we are all different and have been through different experiences. 

 Sometimes  even regular sad events can  become our normal. However, these have an accumulative effect on how we view the world. This can lead us to wonder why it is hard to cope all of a sudden.

I trained as an integrative psychotherapist counsellor. This means I understand as we journey through our life, we need different things at different times. I use a wide range of techniques to enable each clients to feel they have the ability to thrive in life not simply survive.

Feel free to email or message me for an initial 15 min phone or video call. This is no obligation just giving you the chance to meet me.

I work online or over the phone.

I always endeavor to be flexible around my clients work,Enabling each client to enhance their power and life balance. 

 I understand each client has a busy life schedule.

Our first session is lead by you.

Before the first session, I would have sent out a simple contract. This is to ensure each client knows what to expect from me. Also it cover legal information that ensures I always work ethically.

If you have chosen a video call, I will send a Zoom link, before our appointment.

 If you have chosen a phone session, I will send a text to confirm your appointment.

I have experience working with trauma it will be my responsibility to hold the therapy space to ensure you don't end our session feeling you are unable to manage your day.
