About Kathryn
Kathryn Evans is a counsellor who trained in humanistic person-centred practice and is a registered member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). She presents as warm and approachable and aims to create a respectful space where people can talk about difficult experiences. Her way of working focuses on listening and helping each person find clarity about their next steps.
Kathryn draws on more than a decade of experience supporting people in community mental health and wellbeing roles before qualifying as a counsellor.
How Kathryn works
That background included paid roles and volunteering where she offered emotional and practical support to people facing complex life challenges. She has worked with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, bereavement, gender identity worries, chronic health conditions, self-harm and suicide-related distress. Kathryn also helps people with stress, relationships, parenting strain, addictions, eating and sleeping problems, and career-related pressures.
Her main clinical approach is client-centred therapy, which places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. She also draws on ideas from other therapeutic approaches when appropriate, guided by ongoing professional development. Kathryn aims to build a trusting therapeutic relationship and to offer steady, non-judgemental listening.
In sessions she supports people to talk through what matters to them, process emotions, and consider practical steps. Her goal is to help people reach greater acceptance, clearer decisions, and a firmer sense of direction.

How client-centred care works online
Kathryn mainly uses client-centred therapy, which means sessions focus on your experience and what you want to explore. The therapist listens attentively, reflects what she hears, and helps you make sense of feelings and choices. This approach can be helpful for grief, low mood, anxiety and relationship difficulties.She also blends in ideas from other therapies as needed, applying techniques that fit your situation. That flexibility means the work adapts to your goals rather than forcing a single method. Deciding which approach to use is something she will do with you, based on your needs, preferences and progress.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical options. Video calls are useful when visual contact helps the conversation. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a work break. Live chat and messaging suit short check-ins or people who prefer to write. These formats make it easier to schedule therapy around daily life and to keep sessions consistent when in-person meetings are difficult.
