About Evonne

Evonne Ungate is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 16 years of experience. She sees adults who are dealing with relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression and life changes. Evonne also addresses concerns such as grief, intimacy issues, anger and career pressures.

Her sessions are conversational and interactive. She uses person-centred ideas alongside solution-focused techniques to keep work practical and on-point. She aims to listen without labels and to treat people with respect and sensitivity.

Evonne often helps people who are coping with attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, communication difficulties and control concerns. She also works with those facing divorce or separation, guilt and shame, isolation or struggles around life purpose.

Mood and stress-related problems are part of her experience too; she supports people with bipolar, depression, obsessive thinking, post-traumatic stress and compassion fatigue. She can also work with pregnancy and childbirth related concerns and the emotional effects of midlife change.

Sessions tend to focus on what the person wants to change and on practical next steps. Evonne uses mindfulness elements to help with anxiety and grounding, and solution-focused moves to map small, achievable shifts. The emphasis is on clear conversation and steady progress rather than labels.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps when someone needs space to be heard and to make sense of feelings about relationships, identity or loss. Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention and breathing practices to reduce anxiety and to help with overwhelming emotions. It can be useful for stress, panic and rumination. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and on defining achievable goals. It suits people who want clear next actions for career choices, relationship changes or coping strategies.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist discusses aims and preferences and adjusts methods together with the client. This makes the process collaborative and helps set realistic short-term goals as well as longer-term aims.

The original profile did not list which online session formats are used, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study, shifts at work or family commitments. They can also allow a shorter check-in when time is tight, and reduce travel time so work and life obligations are easier to balance. Registered or accredited professionals can help plan how sessions will fit your routine and what approach will suit your current needs.
