About Evonne

Evonne Irvine is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has three years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults on problems such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and issues around relationships and intimacy. She also assists people dealing with parenting strain, sleep difficulties, anger and career uncertainty, and she lists life purpose among her areas of focus.

Her way of working is down-to-earth and conversational. Evonne listens and helps people name what feels most pressing. She draws on Client-Centred Therapy to make space for each person's views and feelings as they come up.

Evonne also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people spot and test unhelpful thinking patterns. When relevant she brings in mindfulness techniques to support calmer moments and hypnotherapy for focused relaxation work. Psychodynamic ideas inform her attention to past patterns that repeat in present relationships.

Sessions tend to be collaborative and practical. Evonne helps people set short-term aims, try small changes between meetings and review what helps. Her background is in day-to-day counselling work in the UK, with three years of direct client contact.

If someone is unsure how to begin, she asks straightforward questions about current struggles and priorities. The first discussions focus on immediate concerns and on identifying a few practical steps to try next.

Therapeutic approaches used in remote sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening carefully to the person's experience and reflecting it back so they can make sense of their feelings. This approach helps people who need space to talk through worries and to understand what matters most to them.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to test unhelpful beliefs. CBT is often chosen for anxiety, low mood, panic and sleep problems because it gives clear steps to try between sessions.

Mindfulness therapy offers simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and support calmer thinking in the moment. These techniques can be useful alongside work on relationships, stress and anger.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before, and then agree on a plan. This is intended as a collaborative process with adjustments over time.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings around work, caring duties or health needs, and it can reduce travel time. Some formats require less bandwidth or allow shorter check-ins, which can suit busy days or gradual starts.
