About Yolanda
Yolanda Frost is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has four years' experience and works with stress, anxiety, grief, relationship and family concerns, parenting, addiction, trauma and a wide range of everyday life difficulties.
She uses person-centred and experiential ways of working. That means sessions look at thoughts and feelings, and also at bodily sensations and what the body is telling you. Yolanda draws on attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural approaches when they fit the issue being discussed.
Yolanda has worked for several years in a hospice setting providing counselling around terminal illness and bereavement. That background shapes how she talks about grief, loss and the complex feelings that follow a death or a serious diagnosis. She also supports people dealing with anger, intimacy concerns, eating issues and low self-esteem.
Her practice includes elements of mindfulness, motivational interviewing and somatic work. She aims to help people notice how thoughts, feelings and bodily reactions connect, and to develop practical ways to manage stress and anxiety. She will suggest exercises, reflections or short tasks between sessions when useful.
Sessions are offered in English and are based in the United Kingdom. Yolanda keeps up professional development and attends regular supervision in line with the BACP ethical framework. To arrange an initial consultation a short matching questionnaire is used followed by booking a first session.
Approaches used in online counselling
Yolanda commonly combines person-centred experiential work with attachment-based ideas. Person-centred experiential work focuses on the person's own experience and on noticing bodily sensations as well as thoughts and feelings; it can help when anxiety or overwhelming emotion make thinking difficult. Attachment-based approaches look at how early relationships shape current patterns and can be useful for relationship and intimacy concerns.She also uses short-term cognitive behavioural techniques to help spot thinking patterns and try practical changes. CBT-style work often involves setting simple tasks, trying new responses and reviewing what helps. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together; the counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and agree a plan that fits the person's needs.
Please check the therapist's current session options before booking, as the original profile lists live chat and asynchronous messaging as the formats she currently used. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow quicker check-ins, and reduce travel time. Ask about the session length, scheduling rhythm and messaging response times when you complete the matching questionnaire.
