Approaches and Online Therapy with a Psychodynamic Focus
Yvon draws on client-centred and psychodynamic approaches to guide online work in ways that are accessible and relevant to daily life. Client-Centred Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and support - the therapist follows the client’s lead, reflecting feelings and helping people clarify their values and goals. This approach is useful for issues such as low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and navigating life transitions.Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence current feelings and behaviour. Through gentle exploration of memories, relationships, and recurring themes, this approach can help people understand the roots of anxiety, depression, trauma responses, and interpersonal patterns.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Yvon works with clients to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and he is willing to adjust the style of work as the relationship and aims develop.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. For many people this range of options makes it easier to maintain continuity of care, access registered professionals from different locations, and engage in therapy in ways that suit everyday life.
