About Yvon
Yvon Yagbazia is a counsellor who helps people facing trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, anger, low self-esteem and compassion fatigue. He offers sessions in English and French and works from a psychodynamic outlook to support those struggling after difficult experiences. He aims to create a calm space where people can talk without feeling judged and begin to make sense of what they are going through.
Yvon describes therapy as a personal process that looks at both life events and past experiences. His psychodynamic background means he pays attention to patterns that may come from earlier relationships and memories. He also uses a client-centred stance, which focuses on listening closely and following the person’s lead in sessions.
In practice he helps people talk through painful memories, confusion about identity, relationship difficulties and stress linked to caregiving or illness. He listens for recurring themes and gently points out habits that may be getting in the way of change. Sessions are intended to help people notice what they do and why, so they can try different choices in their daily life.
Yvon has four years of experience working in mental health and counselling services in North London. His BACP credential is noted as his professional registration. He also brings experience from life and performance coaching work to support practical goals alongside reflective therapy.
People who choose him can expect a respectful, patient approach that balances understanding past influences with steps to feel better now. If you are thinking about starting therapy, he invites you to take the first step and make contact.
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Psychodynamic therapy focuses on how past experiences and relationship patterns shape current feelings and choices. Online sessions using this approach can help people understand repeating themes, painful memories and hidden motivations that influence daily life.Client-centred therapy emphasises active listening, empathy and following the person’s pace. In an online setting this often means the counsellor reflects what they hear and helps the person name feelings and priorities, so goals emerge naturally from the conversation.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Yvon will work together with each person to decide which methods feel most helpful based on their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process can start in the first few sessions and change as progress unfolds.
