About William

William Evans is a counsellor who uses person-centred and integrative methods to help people facing money worries and other life stresses. He works in a warm, down-to-earth way and focuses on building a trusting relationship so people feel heard. William holds BACP membership which means he follows recognised professional standards.

In sessions he listens first and asks practical, open questions to help people make sense of what is happening. He combines approaches to suit the individual rather than using one fixed method. That might include cognitive behavioural tools to spot unhelpful thinking and acceptance-based ideas to help with difficult feelings.

He has four years of professional experience and has worked with adults and young people. He has also worked one-to-one with people on the autism spectrum and with neurotypical young people. He has undertaken LGBTQ+ awareness training and describes particular interest in men's mental health and how social expectations affect wellbeing.

William helps with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, grief and relationship and intimacy-related issues. He also offers support around parenting strain, career worries, life changes and problems with sleep.

People can expect a reflective, non-judgemental approach that emphasises personal choice and practical steps. William aims to help people clarify their goals and try small changes that fit everyday life.

Approaches that translate to online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them, and then commit to small actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviours, offering practical techniques to reduce anxiety, improve sleep and tackle low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current ways of connecting and can help with trust, intimacy and attachment-related worries.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. William will explore your goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then suggest a mix of methods to try together. The decision about which tools to use is collaborative and can change as work progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy helps fit counselling into a busy life by removing travel and allowing sessions around work or family commitments. Online meetings can also make shorter check-ins easier and let conversations continue when relocation or travel would otherwise interrupt progress.
