About Roy

Roy Yelverton is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. He works with issues such as grief, parenting strain, self-esteem struggles and stress. He aims to meet each person with respect, sensitivity and compassion.

Roy focuses on helping people take practical steps toward a more fulfilling life. He uses a person-centred way of working that starts with the individual's experience rather than a list of symptoms.

Background and approach

That means talking through where problems feel rooted and what gets in the way of change. He helps clients notice and accept difficult feelings while also looking at small, realistic steps forward. Roy also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which supports people to live in line with their values even when feelings are hard.

He combines that with trauma-focused approaches when past harm is a central issue. Sessions are tailored to the person and their situation rather than following a fixed script. Clients can expect a calm and supportive space to explore painful events and current challenges.

Roy aims to empower people to make choices that fit their life and goals. He describes his role as helping the person, not just treating symptoms. With four years of professional practice and registration with the BACP, he brings steady experience to his work.

Sessions are offered in English and are delivered via online formats so people across the UK can connect in ways that suit them.

Ways of working Roy names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How these approaches work online

Roy uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people process past harm and its ongoing effects. That approach focuses on safely talking through painful memories, learning how those experiences affect day-to-day life, and building ways to feel steadier in the present.

He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, which helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions in that direction despite difficult thoughts or feelings. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, addiction and life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss your goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together you will try ways of working that fit your needs and adjust the plan as you go.

Online therapy here can be delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are good for a fuller face-to-face feel, phone sessions can fit around busy days or lower bandwidth, and messaging or live chat can be helpful for quick check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into daily life and keep continuity when schedules change.
