Hello
I'm Bevan and I'm a qualified counsellor. I hold a BSc in Humanistic Counselling from Metanoia Institute, I'm a member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and have experience working with a range of clients from school leavers with anxiety to survivors of sexual trauma and abuse.

My Story
During my early adulthood and throughout my mid-twenties, I encountered several mental health challenges. On my path to recovery, I witnessed first hand the positive impact of counselling and talk therapies. With my therapist's support, I was able to come off antidepressants and enjoy a more resilient and happier life.
I embarked on my counselling training in 2020 after working in a range of jobs, including watersports instructor, bar supervisor, and operations manager for a small online business. Recognising my desire to help others, I enrolled in an introductory counselling course at a nearby college.
In 2025, I graduated from Metanoia Institute with a BSc in Humanistic Counselling, having gained valuable experience volunteering at charity-run counselling agencies supporting young people and survivors of sexual abuse and assault.
As a Humanistic counsellor, I believe that everyone has an inherent capacity for growth and self-improvement, with the right support and environment. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel comfortable being open, vulnerable, and honest—both with me and with yourself. In our work together, I focus on fostering awareness: helping you explore and expand your understanding of your own experiences. I also emphasize acceptance—learning to embrace all parts of yourself and others with compassion and empathy. By honoring your unique journey, we can work together toward healing and growth.
