Kathryn Evans, BACP

Kathryn Evans is a humanistic, person-centred counsellor and a registered member of the BACP (British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists). She brings six years of counselling experience and more than a decade of earlier roles offering emotional and wellbeing support. Kathryn aims to make conversations straightforward and warm so people feel able to speak openly about what matters to them.

She worked in community mental health and wellbeing services and has supported people facing anxiety, depression and trauma. Kathryn also has experience with relationship and family concerns, grief, gender identity, chronic health issues, self-harm and suicidal feelings. Her background includes paid roles and volunteering that focused on person-to-person support.

Kathryn uses a person-centred approach and draws on other influences to shape sessions. That means sessions start from listening and following what the person brings, rather than imposing a strict programme. She encourages people to find their own solutions, build acceptance and gain clearer direction for life after counselling.

In sessions Kathryn aims to build a trusting, respectful relationship. She offers a calm space to talk through stresses, life changes, coping with ongoing health problems, and questions about identity or goals. The work can include practical coping ideas alongside reflective conversation.

If someone is unsure what to expect she will discuss how to work together and what might suit their needs. Prospective clients are invited to ask questions before booking so they can feel confident about taking the next step.

Person-centred approaches for online counselling

Kathryn’s primary way of working is person-centred therapy. This approach focuses on listening carefully and following what the person brings to sessions, helping them feel heard and respected while they make their own discoveries. It suits people dealing with anxiety, grief, relationship questions and identity concerns.

She also blends in other influences drawn from her ongoing training and experience. These additional ideas are used to offer practical coping strategies or different ways to look at a problem when helpful, especially for issues like stress, trauma responses or long-term health conditions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kathryn will discuss goals and preferences with each person and adapt the way she works to suit their needs. Together they decide what feels most useful as the work progresses.

The original biography does not list specific online or in-person session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins during a work break or between appointments. It can also offer audio-only options when video is not convenient or lower-bandwidth connections are needed, subject to the formats the service provides.
