About Yolande
Yolande Dewar is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 14 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief and loss, depression, and life changes. She also addresses issues such as ADHD, intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping difficulties, and questions about life purpose.
Yolande uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical changes. Sessions involve talking through current problems, testing small adjustments in thinking or behaviour, and reviewing what helps. She offers clear, straightforward tools rather than abstract theory.
Her background includes long-term clinical work in the United Kingdom supporting clients with trauma, domestic violence, and complicated family situations. She has experience with blended family issues, caregiver stress, and separation and divorce. That experience shapes a pragmatic style that focuses on immediate problems as well as longer-term patterns.
In sessions Yolande pays attention to daily routines like sleep and eating, and how these habits affect mood and energy. She also addresses practical concerns such as money, work and caregiving responsibilities so conversations feel relevant to everyday life.
People who feel stuck after a job change, relationship shift or health challenge will find an approach aimed at clearer steps forward. To begin, readers are encouraged to confirm session options and follow the listed process for booking a first appointment.
CBT approaches and online working
Yolande uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a structured method that looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT helps with problems like anxiety, depression, panic and compulsive behaviours by testing small changes in thinking and behaviour to see what makes a difference.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss goals and preferences and then agree on which techniques to try. That collaboration allows adjustments if a method does not fit the person's needs.
Her original biography notes a preference for video and phone chat, but readers should confirm current session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use sessions during a break at work or connect from a quieter room without needing to be on camera the whole time. Registered or accredited professionals offer online sessions in ways that aim to match practical life demands while focusing on concrete steps forward.
