Compassionate integrative counsellor focused on practical change
About Andrea
Andrea Antrobus offers a warm, person-focused counselling approach that centres on the client's experience. She blends different methods to suit each person and keeps sessions practical and interactive. Andrea draws on six years of professional practice to help people manage stress, anxiety and depression.
She works with issues around relationships, intimacy and self-esteem as well as life transitions and parenting concerns. Her approach mixes client-centred listening with cognitive-behavioural techniques to tackle unhelpful thoughts and patterns.
Background and approach
She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at past influences and solution-focused tools to set clear goals. Mindfulness practices are introduced where they might help with grounding and emotional regulation. Andrea has experience supporting people who have faced trauma, abuse or challenges related to adoption, abandonment and attachment.
She is familiar with eating and body-image concerns, substance-related problems and the stresses that come with caregiving and blended family dynamics. Practical coping strategies are a consistent feature of her work. Clients can expect a respectful, non-judgemental space and a tailored plan that reflects their priorities.
Sessions aim to be straightforward, with small steps and measurable goals. Andrea is BACP registered, with practice in the United Kingdom and six years of clinical experience. Therapy is offered in English and Andrea accepts international clients.
She uses a mix of conversation styles to match each person’s needs and helps people decide what will be most helpful for them.

How Andrea’s approaches work online
Andrea draws on client-centred therapy to build a respectful, listening-led relationship where the person’s priorities guide each session. This approach helps people feel heard and shapes the work around what matters to them.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviours. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and relationship patterns because it gives clear, practical steps to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through options, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist choose methods together according to needs, goals and preferences.
Online therapy here is offered by registered or accredited professionals and includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions are good for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits short check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect in writing. These formats increase flexibility around work, travel and daily life and let people pick what fits their routine and comfort level.
