About Steven
Steven Eveleigh is a BACP counsellor with six years' experience based in the United Kingdom. He works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, grief, self-esteem and career concerns. He also supports issues related to LGBT matters, gender dysphoria, emptiness, guilt and shame, HIV/AIDS, mood disorders, sexuality and workplace difficulties.
Steven previously worked in investment banking and moved into counselling after finding that office life left him unhappy. This life change led him to train as a counsellor and register with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the BACP. He now draws on that lived experience when talking with clients about work stress and life transitions.
He practises client-centred therapy, which means sessions are guided by the person who comes for help. Sessions focus on listening, reflecting what is said and helping people clarify their feelings and choices. Steven also draws on transactional analysis and Gestalt techniques when these approaches suit someone’s goals.
In sessions he encourages people to speak openly about difficult topics and to take an active role in exploring thoughts and beliefs. He aims to create straightforward, down-to-earth sessions without judgement and with steady encouragement to examine what matters to the client.
People who choose Steven typically want practical conversation about work, identity, relationships and mood. To begin they follow the site process to match and schedule a first session.

How client-centred work translates to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person who comes for help. The counsellor listens, reflects what is said and follows the client’s lead. This approach helps with low mood, anxiety, relationship concerns and identity matters by clarifying feelings and choices.Gestalt and transactional analysis may also be used when they suit a person’s situation. Gestalt techniques look at present-moment experience and how someone reacts in the session. Transactional analysis examines patterns in how people communicate and relate, which can be useful for workplace and relationship issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and agree together which methods to try based on needs, goals and preference. That collaborative decision is revisited as therapy progresses.
Confirm the specific session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list formats explicitly. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family commitments and can reduce travel time. They also allow for shorter check-ins or sessions when paperwork or a quick conversation is needed, helping therapy fit into everyday life.
