About Steven
Steven Eveleigh is a BACP counsellor who aims to help people feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. He offers a calm, down-to-earth space where clients can talk about difficult topics without judgement. Steven writes plainly and listens carefully so people can make sense of what they are feeling.
He trained after a career in fast-paced banking left him wanting more meaning. That life experience shaped his understanding of workplace stress and career drift.
Background and approach
He works with issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, relationship worries and LGBT concerns, along with related topics like emptiness and guilt. Sessions are led by the client and shaped around what matters most in each meeting. Steven uses a person-centred approach that focuses on the client's experience and aims to help them find their own answers.
He also draws on other ways of working where appropriate, including transactional analysis and Gestalt methods. Steven brings six years' experience to his counselling practice in the United Kingdom. He describes his role as creating a collaborative, trusting relationship and offering unconditional positive regard.
People can expect straightforward, respectful conversations that aim to uncover useful perspectives. For those unsure about beginning therapy, Steven encourages a first step of simply talking through what feels hard. He helps clients set the pace and decide what to focus on, whether the concern is work-related stress, identity questions, or coping after loss.
How person-centred counselling works online
Steven offers primarily person-centred counselling which focuses on listening, acceptance and helping clients find their own way forward. This approach suits people who need a calm space to talk through anxiety, depression, identity questions or workplace stress and allows the client to direct each session.He sometimes combines person-centred work with elements of transactional analysis or Gestalt approaches when they fit the client's needs. Those methods add ways to look at patterns in relationships or present-moment experience, and they can be used to deepen understanding of feelings and behaviours. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process between therapist and client.
Online work is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits shorter check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options help people fit counselling around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on the therapeutic relationship.
