Background and approach

Andrew uses a mix of approaches tailored to the problem and the person. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps with unhelpful thought patterns and anxiety. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people to live according to their values even when emotions are difficult.

Attachment-based ideas and emotionally-focused work guide conversations about close relationships and connection. He has worked with a wide range of concerns including relationship strain, low self-esteem, depression, grief, addiction and trauma-related issues. He also supports people dealing with career stress, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related challenges and identity matters such as LGBT concerns.

Sessions are offered in English and run online by video, phone, live chat or messaging. The way he works is simple and direct: listen, help make sense of what is happening, and practice changes together so life feels steadier.

How Andrew blends therapeutic approaches for online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being pushed around by them. It focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that move life in a meaningful direction, which is useful for anxiety, low mood and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It offers clear exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and reduce anxious patterns, making it practical for stress and worry. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how past relationships shape current connection and emotion, helping with relationship strain and issues around trust and intimacy.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss preferences, goals and what feels most helpful, and together they will adjust methods over time. This collaborative stance means the therapy can shift as progress and needs change.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video lets people read body language, phone can be easier if bandwidth is limited, chat and messaging suit quick check-ins or those who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and daily routines, and to continue work when circumstances change.
