Chris Evans

I currently do have some availability for new clients. I work generally online but am available for in person sessions, either at your home or mine. My working hours are Monday to Saturday by appointment between 8am to 7pm. 

Compassionate, patient and skillful support. As and when you need it

Are you:

鈼� Feeling overwhelmed?

鈼� In a transition in your life, unsure of how to move forward?

鈼� Troubled by grief or loss?

鈼� Needing support to work through dysfunctional or self-limiting patterns?

鈼� Struggling to find meaning or connection?

鈼� Looking for an open and non-judgemental space in which you can honestly share

what鈥檚 going on for you?

I am trained in integrative counselling, mainly rooted in the person-centred approach. My role is not to fix you or tell you how you should be, but skillfully support you in leading the life you wish to lead. I offer to meet you where you are, with no judgment; to sit or walk alongside you; to be your compassionate witness; to openly welcome whatever comes up within you and help you navigate it.

In the counselling therapeutic relationship, you are free to be exactly as you are, filtered or unfiltered as you wish. I commit to being there with you and offering you a space in which you can work through difficult emotional states, find a greater clarity on your experience, and a greater balance in your life. I support you to move towards living the life that you wish to live.

My counselling and related qualifications include:

鈼� A BTEC Higher National Diploma in Integrative Counselling from the University of Glamorgan, 2013

鈼� Death Doula Training with Alexandra Derwen, 2022, and repeated in 2025 in a supportive role for those new to the training.

鈼� Independent Funeral Celebrant Training with Dinah Liverside, 2023

鈼� Grief Tender Training with Frances Weller, 2023-2024

As a counsellor, I receive regular supervision, and ongoing professional training.

My practice is to meet the client as they are, in all the myriad challenges and possibilities of human life. My approach is to be compassionately real; to honour the client鈥檚 unique perspective on their emotional and psychological worlds, and to give them the time they need to tell their authentic story.

Through the safe enough container of the therapeutic counselling relationship, I commit to 鈥榖eing鈥� with the client as they move through their process; skilfully supporting them towards a greater self-acceptance and clarity, while planting the seeds for a new and more fulfilling tomorrow.

What follows are the words of a previous client:

What stands out most in Chris鈥� support is the way he meets the human heart as it is in the moment. He has seen me in all my colours, and wildness, and has never flinched, always accepting me, however I have presented, with grace and kindness. That depth of acceptance has been profoundly healing in itself. Equally life-changing has been his steady reminders for me to find ways to de-escalate from a trauma response. This simple but vital guidance has not only supported my ongoing survival, but also allowed me to step into greater independence, resilience and freedom. His calm integrity and welcoming generosity of spirit create a safe space in which transformation becomes possible. EC

I offer an initial 15 minute online meeting, free of charge. This initial session allow me to outline what I offer, and for you to briefly share what you would wish to bring to the counselling. 

Following this initial session, we could then decide if we wish to continue working together.
