About Yvon
Yvon Yagbazia is a counsellor and psychodynamic psychotherapist with BACP registration and four years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. He offers sessions in English and French and works with people facing trauma, depression, stress, anxiety and anger, alongside related concerns such as self-esteem and compassion fatigue.
Yvon describes psychotherapy as a personal process of looking more closely at life and history. He aims to create a setting where clients can speak without fear of being judged. Sessions are presented as a chance to understand conscious and unconscious patterns that may be causing pain or obstacles.
He uses psychodynamic ideas to help people trace how past experiences shape current reactions. That can help someone see where anger, anxiety or low mood come from and how these responses developed. He also draws on client-centred methods that keep the conversation focused on the person’s own perspective and priorities.
Yvon combines work in a North London mental health and counselling service with his private practice and has experience at the intersection of therapy and life coaching. He lists a broad range of concerns he supports, including trauma and abuse, chronic illness, attachment issues, and relationship and communication problems.
Sessions are described as a space to talk through difficult material and to make sense of behaviours that feel stuck or harmful. Prospective clients who prefer English or French can expect to work in the language they choose. For international clients, arrangements are accepted according to his practice terms.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Psychodynamic therapy focuses on how past relationships and early experiences shape current feelings and reactions. It helps people who want to understand deep-rooted patterns that feed anger, anxiety or low mood by exploring feelings and recurring interpersonal themes.Client-Centred Therapy places the client’s perspective at the centre of the work. It involves listening, reflective conversation and helping people clarify their own goals and feelings. This approach can make talking through anger and stress feel more manageable and directed by the person themselves.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the process. He will work collaboratively with each person to identify which ideas and methods fit their goals and preferences. That might mean drawing more on psychodynamic reflection for long-standing patterns or on client-centred conversation for immediate coping and clarity.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking as the biography does not list specific online ways of working. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy lives, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand. Registered or accredited professionals often find remote sessions helpful for maintaining regular contact while balancing work and family commitments.
