Background and approach
Sessions aim to be warm and non-judgemental. He listens first and then works with people to set clear goals. Techniques come from a mix of approaches, chosen to match what a person wants to change or understand.
Andrew addresses practical problems such as sleep, eating and money worries, alongside deeper themes like attachment, shame, dissociation and past trauma. He also offers coaching-style support for career questions and life purpose. People can expect a collaborative working style where small steps are tracked and adjusted.
The focus is on helping people feel more able to cope, make decisions and rebuild a sense of direction. If you are nervous about starting, he acknowledges that first step as an important act of courage.

How his approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, listening relationship where the person leads the pace and topics; it helps with issues like low self-esteem, grief and identity questions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change unhelpful habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped before, then suggest ways of working. This is a collaborative process and plans are reviewed as therapy progresses.
The original profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports people who live outside the local area or who need to balance sessions with work or family responsibilities. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, worksheets and conversational techniques for remote sessions so the work stays practical and focused.
