About me
Biography: Kirby Evans
As a dedicated therapist with a unique blend of experience and education, I am passionate about helping people navigate the complexities of mental health and emotional well-being. With a background that combines law enforcement, psychology, and counselling, I bring a comprehensive perspective to the therapeutic process.
I hold a degree in Law and Criminology, which has provided me with a solid understanding of the legal and societal factors that influence behaviour. My pursuit of knowledge led me to earn a Master’s degree in Forensic Psychology and Criminology, where I delved into the psychological aspects of criminal behaviour and the intricacies of the human mind. This academic foundation is complemented by a Level 5 Diploma in Psycho-therapeutic Counselling, equipping me with the skills to provide effective, evidence-based therapeutic interventions.
Before transitioning to therapy, I served as a police officer for 16 years. This experience has given me invaluable insights into the challenges faced by people in high-stress environments, including issues related to trauma, anxiety, and depression. I understand the pressures that come with societal expectations and the stigma that often surrounds mental health discussions. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgemental space where you can openly explore your thoughts and feelings.
I believe that every individual has the potential for growth and healing. My approach is collaborative and tailored to meet your unique needs, drawing on a variety of therapeutic techniques to help you develop coping strategies, improve emotional regulation, and enhance your overall quality of life. Whether you are dealing with stress, relationship issues, or past trauma, I am here to support you on your journey toward self-discovery and resilience.
If you are ready to take the first step toward a healthier, more fulfilling life, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can work towards understanding your challenges and building a path forward. Your mental health matters, and I am here to help you navigate it with compassion and expertise.
