About Steven
Steven Eveleigh is a BACP counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression and issues around identity. He creates a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about what matters to them. Steven often supports people dealing with grief, self-esteem and workplace pressures.
He also works with LGBT and sexuality-related concerns, and with matters such as gender dysphoria, guilt and shame. Steven began his career in investment banking in London and later worked in Bournemouth, Dorset.
Background and approach
After feeling unhappy in that fast-paced world, he trained to become a counsellor and found the work felt right for him. He has now built six years of experience supporting people through a wide range of life challenges. He practises client-centred therapy, so sessions are shaped by what each person needs.
That means the counsellor follows the direction set by the client, listens closely, and reflects back what comes up. This approach suits people who want a respectful, exploratory space to make sense of difficult feelings. Steven will work collaboratively to agree how to proceed and may introduce other helpful ways of working if they suit the situation.
Examples he has used include transactional analysis and Gestalt therapy where appropriate. The emphasis is on finding practical, relevant ways to move forward. Sessions are available via video, phone, live chat or text messaging, giving flexibility for different lifestyles.
Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to the therapist's schedule.

Approaches Steven lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Steven may also draw on other approaches when they fit the situation, such as elements of transactional analysis or Gestalt work. These are used to explore patterns in relationships and present-moment experience, supporting clearer decisions and emotional awareness.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then agree a way of working that suits the individual. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to give practical flexibility. Video is useful for a more conversational experience, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and text messaging can fit around busy schedules. These options help people fit counselling around work, family commitments and travel.
