About David

David Evans is a BACP-registered counsellor with four years of professional experience. He offers calm, straightforward support for people struggling with stress, anxiety, self-esteem and relationship concerns. David aims to help people feel steadier and more able to manage day-to-day challenges.

He draws on Client-Centred, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Solution-Focused methods to shape sessions around each person. That can mean practising new ways of thinking, trying short experiments between appointments, or using a supportive listening style to uncover strengths. He also adapts how he communicates for people who are neurodiverse, based on earlier work in learning support for ADHD and autism.

David brings experience working with family and relationship issues, including blended family dynamics, fatherhood questions, separation and communication problems. He also supports people dealing with chronic illness, body image concerns, addiction, codependency and the lasting effects of trauma. For people with non-complex PTSD he uses a rewind technique alongside grounding strategies to reduce symptoms and manage moments of distress.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to the person. David treats each person as the expert on their life and works to build practical coping tools and clearer everyday routines. He encourages small steps that fit into work, parenting and other responsibilities.

To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and then arrange their first appointment. The subscription-based model for sessions can be cancelled at any time, and international clients are accepted.

How approaches like Client-Centred and CBT translate to online therapy

David uses Client-Centred therapy to create space for people to tell their story and be heard. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting what matters to the person and helping them make choices that suit their life.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot thinking patterns that feed anxiety or low mood and try small experiments to change them. It is often used for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes because it targets practical steps and homework between sessions.

Solution-Focused Therapy narrows in on what the person wants to change and builds on existing strengths. Sessions can be short and goal-directed, which suits people who want clear, practical progress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That shared planning helps tailor sessions to what is realistic for their day-to-day life.

The practical benefit of online work is that therapy can fit into busy schedules and reduce travel time. Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list them explicitly. Online sessions can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, manage work breaks and keep continuity when routines change.
