More about Andrea

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am primary a Person Centred Counsellor as I feel this is a solid foundation to work from. I believe in a holistic approach with my clients as this tends to work better.

I started my journey over 20 years ago. In September 2022 I graduated and was awarded Level 4 in counselling and Psychotherapy. Within these 20 years I have volunteered in many charity settings and gained immense knowledge by way of listening to my clients and supporting them through traumatic times.

I do not assume I am an expert in any field , I feel the client is the expert as one knows what hurts. I am just here to support my client on their journey.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
