Background and approach

In sessions he treats you as the expert of your own story. Conversations centre on what matters to you and on small, achievable changes. He listens for patterns that keep causing pain and looks for ways to reduce repeated upset and worry.

Andrew draws on approaches that look at how early bonds shape feelings and relationships. He also uses person-centred ideas that prioritise the pace you prefer, and solution-focused strategies to set clear goals and steps forward. Where deeper themes arise, he may work with psychodynamic ideas to help link present difficulties to past experiences.

People come for help with panic, mood changes, feelings of isolation, problems with communication and the strain of life events such as separation or caring responsibilities. Sessions are straightforward and conversational, aimed at helping you feel steadier between appointments.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current feelings and connections. Online sessions can help people notice repeating patterns in relationships and practise new ways of relating in daily life.

Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of sessions, using attentive listening and gentle reflection. This approach supports people who need time to make sense of their feelings and to set their own pace for change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and help you decide which methods to try. Decisions are collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation when deeper emotional work is needed. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, written reflection and times when typing feels easier than speaking.

Many people find the range of formats makes it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while exploring attachment issues, anxiety and relationship concerns with a registered professional.
