About Kathryn
Kathryn Evans is a BACP counsellor who brings six years of practice to her work. She is warm and approachable and aims to make it easier for parents to talk about everyday pressures. Her manner is calm and compassionate, and she focuses on listening first so people feel understood.
She started by supporting people in community mental health and wellbeing services for over a decade. That work involved emotional and practical support for those facing complex life challenges.
Background and approach
Those early roles shaped how she responds now when someone arrives feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to begin. Kathryn uses a person-centred approach, sometimes called client-centred therapy, and draws on ideas from other therapies as needed. Sessions are led by the client’s concerns and pace, with the counsellor offering reflection and gentle guidance rather than directive advice.
The aim is to help people make sense of their feelings and choices. She has worked with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, depression, addictions, and parenting. Additional areas she has experience in include chronic illness, communication problems, attachment and bereavement related issues.
Her background also covers work around gender identity and long-term health conditions. Kathryn offers a space where parents can talk without judgement about the strains of raising children, career pressures, relationship worries or coping with change. She supports clients who want to understand themselves better, find acceptance, and make practical steps forward.

Approaches Kathryn lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Client-centred care online and what it involves
Client-centred therapy focuses on being heard. The counsellor offers empathic listening and reflection so clients can explore feelings at their own pace. This approach helps with anxiety, stress, low self-esteem and relationship or parenting concerns by creating a steady place to think things through.Kathryn also blends influences from other therapeutic ideas when helpful. This allows practical tools or different perspectives to be introduced alongside person-centred listening. Together the therapist and client decide which methods feel most useful for the client’s goals and situation.
Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer therapeutic work and face-to-face conversation, phone can be a good alternative when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat suit shorter check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These options make therapy more flexible and help people fit counselling into busy family and work lives.
