David Evans

David Evans is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He works with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family issues, self-esteem and coping with life changes. He also works with concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues and communication problems.

David draws on client-centred approaches alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and on listening to what matters most to each person. He uses straightforward techniques to help people manage mood, tackle unhelpful thinking and set manageable goals.

He has previous experience supporting people with ADHD and autism in learning support roles and has taken specific training about neurodiversity. That experience informs his one-to-one work, especially around mood regulation, work demands, friendships and self-acceptance.

In private practice he also carries skills from couples work into individual sessions to help with relationship patterns and communication. He offers approaches for non-complex post-traumatic stress using a specific rewind technique alongside grounding methods to reduce immediate symptoms after a distressing event.

Sessions are practical and person-led. David aims to help people notice small changes that can make daily life easier. To begin, people follow the site's matching steps and schedule an initial appointment.

How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following what the client brings to the session. In practice this means the counsellor reflects concerns back, helps clarify what matters most and supports people to use their own strengths to make changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers clear strategies to test unhelpful thoughts, try small behavioural experiments and reduce anxiety or low mood over time.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical, short-term goals and on what works now. It is useful for people who want direct steps to move forward with work, relationships or life choices.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then agree a direction together. That collaborative discussion helps match techniques to the person's situation and aims.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a workday, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins when a longer in-person session is difficult. They can also allow phone-only conversations if bandwidth or being on camera is an issue. Registered or accredited professionals will explain the practical arrangements when you schedule the first meeting.
