About Me
My name is Yolly, and I offer therapy rooted in real life.
I didn’t become a trauma therapist by accident, I’ve lived through trauma. I offer grief counselling because I’ve known deep, personal loss. I work with neurodivergent clients because I’m neurodivergent too. This lived experience shapes everything I do.
I was born in Paris, and after more than 20 years in the UK, I bring a rich multicultural perspective into the therapy room. I speak English and French, with conversational support in Romanian and Italian. My approach is pluralistic, meaning I adapt to you. We might begin with person-centred therapy and move into mindfulness or CBT. You bring yourself and what you’re facing. I bring presence, structure, and care.
I can’t promise instant change, but I can offer you a safe, grounded space where you’ll be heard. Whether you’re a child, a parent, a colleague, or simply a human trying to cope, I’m here to walk alongside you.
Let’s find a better path together, one that feels true to who you are.
Testimonials
"I called Yolly feeling confident and positive. After our sessions, I realised I no longer need therapy at this time because I feel so much better.
Yolly helped me a lot—not by giving advice, but by truly listening. She supported me in processing my thoughts and feelings, which helped me find my own solutions. I’m really happy with the outcome.
It’s been very insightful, and I’m so grateful. Thank you so much, Yolly. I feel ready to move forward."
Julietta
Couple therapy: Our last session really pushed us to the edge, forcing us to confront difficult conversations about our future. Through this, we realised how much we truly needed each other. It was a challenging but eye-opening experience, and we ended the session on a positive note, feeling more connected and hopeful moving forward.
M & M
J’ai décidé de commencer une thérapie pour mieux me comprendre, m’améliorer, essayer de résoudre un conflit familial et mieux vivre avec mon anxiété. Yolande m’a écouté et j’ai pu voir mes problèmes sous un autre angle et aider à mieux appréhender les tensions/conflits quand ils se présentent. Je recommande d’utiliser les services de Yolande pour se sentir mieux et améliorer ses relations avec son entourage ou au travail.

Dear Yolande, thank you for your support and genuine care during a challenging time in my life. The therapeutic work we have done together has been of great value to me on my healing journey. You have offered me the space and guidance so I could express and untangle my feelings, so I could understand myself better and I could heal and grow. Thank you
Former Client
These sessions have been so helpful. I’ve learned to manage the stress and intensity of my job by setting boundaries, not overthinking, and allowing myself to ask for help.
Yolly encouraged me to take regular breaks, which has really helped me avoid information overload and reduce mistakes. I’m leaving therapy feeling more confident in my coping strategies and grateful for the space to reflect and grow.
Marcelle
Yolly was very insightful and really helped me and my husband work through our differences to enable us to understand each other better and communicate more effectively.

I have been working with Yolande for almost a year and I have noticed a huge change in my self perception and the way that I care for myself. I’m much kinder to myself and she helps me work through my overactive mind and understand my emotions. She is very kind and professional and attentive to my issues!
