About Andrew

Andrew Clarke helps people work on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, anger and depression. He also supports people coping with life changes. He works in a person-centred way and believes clients know their own stories and strengths. Andrew is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of professional experience.

Andrew uses a range of approaches in his practice, including attachment-based, emotionally-focused and client-centred methods. He typically focuses on clarifying what matters to the client, improving communication and understanding patterns in close relationships. Sessions involve listening, reflecting and working on practical steps the client can try between meetings.

He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at past experiences that may influence present feelings and behaviour. Solution-focused techniques may be used to set short-term goals and identify small changes that make a difference. This blend aims to balance understanding with practical action.

Andrew’s background includes a degree in counselling and experience as a counselling supervisor. He works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Andrew uses his approaches in online counselling

Andrew commonly uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationships affect current patterns, helping people understand why they react strongly in close relationships. Client-centred counselling focuses on listening and reflecting so the person leads the pace and topics of the work. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps identify and work with emotions in relationships to improve connection and communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Andrew will work with each person to decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences. He aims to be collaborative, checking in and adjusting the focus as practical goals or understanding develop.

Confirm the available session formats before booking as the biography does not list them explicitly. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, avoid travel and have shorter check-ins when needed. They can also allow work that focuses on feelings and relationship patterns using the same approaches he uses in face-to-face work.
