About Steven
Steven Eveleigh is a BACP counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and workplace issues. He supports LGBT concerns, grief, low self-esteem and career questions. Steven aims to make sessions calm and non-judgemental so people can talk openly about difficult topics.
He trained after leaving a demanding corporate career in London and Bournemouth. That background gives him direct experience of high-pressure work environments and the unhappiness they can cause. Steven now draws on six years of practice working with people from varied backgrounds and life stages.
Sessions follow a person-centred approach where the client sets the pace and focus. Steven listens carefully, reflects what he hears and helps clients name feelings and patterns. He encourages people to take an active part in their sessions and to try practical steps between meetings when that feels helpful.
He also has experience addressing gender dysphoria, sexuality, guilt and shame, HIV and AIDS, emptiness and mood disorders. When a different way of working could help, he may use transactional analysis or Gestalt therapy as an additional option to suit the person’s needs.
Steven works in the United Kingdom and conducts counselling in English. He aims to create a collaborative relationship built on respect, so people can explore what matters to them and move towards clearer thinking and healthier choices.
Person‑centred support adapted for online work
Steven uses person-centred counselling to follow what matters most to the client. This approach is based on attentive listening and reflection, helping people to name feelings, explore choices and find clearer direction. It is often useful for anxiety, low mood, workplace stress and identity concerns.He may also draw on transactional analysis or Gestalt ideas when they seem helpful. Transactional analysis can help people understand repeating relationship patterns and communication habits. Gestalt work focuses on present-moment awareness and can help surface unfinished feelings or strong emotional reactions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about what they want from counselling and try different ways of working when needed. Together they decide what fits the client’s goals, needs and preferred pace.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions around work and daily life, shorter check-ins when time is tight and not needing to travel to appointments. Specific session formats are not listed here, so please confirm the available options before booking. Registered and accredited professionals can offer online sessions that let people access counselling from wherever they are in the United Kingdom.
