Evans Counseling
Helping you to find your inner empowerment
welcome
Hi, I’m Kate Evans, the heart and soul of Evans Counseling, my therapy practice separate from Soulful Space, which is my coaching practice. This is where you want to be if you’re looking for good ol’ fashioned therapy or counseling.
In my twenty plus years of work as a therapist it has been my goal to provide a safe and encouraging space for women to process the experiences of their lives and create solutions where hopelessness may have once thrived.
Too often women spend their time focusing on the needs of everyone around them and their own needs get forgotten. This leads to overwhelm, anxiety, depression, and so many feelings that are hard to face on your own.
You do not have to feel alone on this journey. With validation and skills we can move you away from the things that have held you back and toward your goals.
about me
I hold a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan and a Master’s in Professional Counseling from Argosy University. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC).
That’s the fancy stuff. Beyond that, I am a certified yoga instructor. I approach all things from a holistic perspective, meaning that I see everything a being connected. How you eat, how you sleep, what movement you get, your relationships, your job… You get the idea. It’s all connected.
I live in the Chicagoland area with my husband and two calico cats. As all of my sessions are via Zoom you are likely to meet Ruby, who sleeps in my lap, and possibly Soho who climbs on my desk.
I’m casual, I’m authentic, I’m me. I have learned over time that they best therapy I can provide you comes not only with all of my years of experience, but also with the spice that is the real me.
In our work I will hold the mirror to you. I will question you. I will push you. I will teach you and listen to you. I will offer only what you need and take nothing from you. This is your space. This is your healing.

DOn’t miss my new book!
If you mixed Marie Kondo, Brene Brown, your best friend, and a sailor on shore leave together, this is the book you'd get—an irreverent guide to decluttering yourself and your home so you can create the life you deserve.
This is the book you need to read before all of those other decluttering and organizing books collecting dust on your shelves. You’ve had plans to go through your closets for years. You have piles of stuff. Your kitchen is overflowing or your basement is crowded with boxes. You want control but don’t know how to get it because you keep addressing the symptom—the clutter—and not the cause—a lifetime of negative thoughts and messages.
Ditch Your Sh*t validates you and every time you’ve doubted yourself. It teaches you that decluttering yourself will lead to overcoming the barriers that have stopped you from decluttering your home so you can create sustainable change.
In Part I, you'll tackle the mental shit in chapters like "Shitty Thinking" and "Ditch your Shitty Habits." You will draw on your own strengths. You will learn how to create realistic goals for success and overcome feelings of shame and imperfection. In Part II, you'll tackle the physical shit in chapters that focus on specific areas of your house, such as the kitchen, shared common areas, and even the bathroom.
In the end, you will learn how to get shit done and feel good about yourself while doing it!
