Kathryn Evans
Person-centred counsellor offering steady, practical support
About Kathryn
Kathryn Evans is a counsellor who trained in humanistic person-centred practice and is a registered member of the BACP. She brings six years of counselling experience and over a decade of earlier work supporting people with emotional and practical challenges. Kathryn aims to build a trusting working relationship and to offer a calm, compassionate presence during sessions.
She spent many years in community mental health and wellbeing roles before training as a counsellor.
Background and approach
That background included volunteering and paid posts where she supported people through anxiety, depression and trauma. Kathryn also has extensive experience around bereavement, gender identity, chronic health issues, self-harm and suicide-related concerns. Kathryn uses a person-centred approach that focuses on the client’s priorities and pace.
She often draws on ideas from other therapies as needed, while keeping the work grounded in what the individual wants to address. Sessions centre on listening, reflecting and helping people find their own solutions. People come to Kathryn with a wide range of worries, from stress and relationship difficulties to addictions, parenting strain and changes at work.
She also supports those working through identity, body image and caring responsibilities, and people coping with long-term illness or grief. Her style is warm and approachable. Kathryn aims to create a non-judgemental space where clients can talk frankly, feel heard and work toward clearer thinking and practical steps.
She encourages personal growth, acceptance and realistic plans for moving forward. To begin the process Kathryn invites questions and an initial conversation to see if the working relationship feels right. She works with each person to agree goals and the pace of the work.

Sessions & fees
Client-centred work online and practical session options
Kathryn primarily uses a client-centred approach which places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. This means she listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps the person find their own answers, which can be useful for issues such as low mood, relationship stress and self-esteem.She also blends person-centred work with ideas drawn from other therapeutic influences when helpful. That flexible blend lets her adapt to needs such as coping with grief, trauma-related distress or managing long-term health concerns while keeping the focus on the client’s goals.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process and Kathryn treats it as collaborative. She will discuss options, check in about what feels helpful and agree on goals and techniques together so the work fits the client’s preferences and pace.
Online therapy gives practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when seeing expressions matters. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, shorter reflections or people who prefer typing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around life commitments and different daily rhythms.
