About Andrew
Andrew Reid is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and relationship strain. He uses a calm, person-centred way of working that puts the client's experience first. Sessions are straightforward and focus on what matters most to the individual.
He trained to a Level 5 Advanced Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and holds BACP registration. That background is paired with 15 years of practical experience since 2011. His volunteer work supporting victims of sexual abuse and violence has deepened his understanding of trauma and recovery.
Background and approach
Andrew takes a non-directive approach. He listens actively and reflects what he hears so people can make sense of their feelings. This style suits concerns such as bereavement, shame, guilt, addiction and life transitions where someone needs time to process their experience.
Many clients come with issues around attachment, communication and intimacy. He also supports people dealing with anger, career questions, midlife change and questions of life purpose. Sessions move at the client’s pace and focus on building clearer self-understanding.
Therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled based on the therapist’s availability.
How Client-Centred Therapy Works Online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding your experience through careful listening and reflection. The counsellor provides an accepting, non-directive presence so you can explore feelings about anxiety, grief, relationships or trauma and arrive at your own insights. This approach is helpful when someone needs time and space to make sense of difficult emotions.Andrew's broader practice emphasises building a trusting working relationship. Together you will decide what to focus on and which ways of working suit you best. He treats the choice of approach as collaborative and will adapt sessions to meet your goals and preferences as they evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer to write, need brief check-ins, or want to work without being on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments, while maintaining a steady course of support.
