About David

David Evans works on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns using person-focused methods and practical techniques. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience.

He focuses on self-esteem and coping with life changes, and also supports people facing issues such as abandonment and attachment difficulties. He uses Client-Centred Therapy to build a collaborative working relationship and draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to look at patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going.

David has experience from learning support roles working with ADHD and autism, and he has applied that learning to his counselling practice. This means he works with mood regulation, managing work pressures, friendships, and self-acceptance for people on the neurodiversity spectrum.

In private practice he offers one-to-one work informed by skills he uses in couples counselling, helping individuals address communication and commitment issues in their relationships. He also provides support for non-complex post-traumatic stress, using a rewind technique alongside grounding strategies to reduce immediate symptoms.

Sessions combine conversational exploration with practical exercises and short-term goals. People can expect a straightforward approach that focuses on what is useful now and on building skills to manage stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties.

How his approaches work in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of the work and focuses on listening and understanding what matters to them; it is useful for relationship concerns, self-esteem and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical tasks to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety and stress. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and what is already working, which can help when someone wants quick, practical change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. David will discuss what feels most helpful and will adapt the methods based on the client’s needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and may change as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also means techniques and exercises can be shared and reviewed between meetings to support progress.
