About Andrea

Andrea Sprio brings a ten-year career supporting people through difficult life turns. She works from the United Kingdom and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. Andrea speaks English and uses a calm, respectful style to help people make changes they want.

Her work often focuses on relationships, family and parenting strains. She also helps with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and grief. Issues such as intimacy, eating and sleeping problems, anger, low self-esteem and depression are within her remit.

Background and approach

Andrea pays attention to attachment patterns and the ways past experiences shape current struggles. She uses client-centred methods to make space for each person’s story. Narrative approaches help people name problems and try out new ways of living them differently.

Sessions follow a conversational rhythm rather than a rigid script. Andrea tailors the pace and goals to what each person needs. She aims to be practical and straightforward, while keeping conversations warm and non-judgemental.

People turn to Andrea for a mix of short-term focus and longer exploration. Her additional interests include autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family issues, chronic illness and body image. She also works with mood and trauma-related concerns and with young adult issues.

To begin, a simple matching process pairs you with the therapist, then sessions are scheduled to suit both parties. Andrea uses different remote formats so people can pick what best fits their life.

Sessions & fees

How Andrea's approaches work online

Attachment-based work looks at patterns of connection and trust between people. Online sessions can help identify how early bonds affect current relationships and create new ways of relating. Client-centred therapy puts the person's needs and pace at the heart of sessions. It involves listening without judgment and helping people find their own solutions to problems such as stress, anxiety or mood difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then adapt methods as therapy progresses to suit each person's needs.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people read facial cues and body language for deeper conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to keep momentum between sessions and can suit people who prefer writing to speaking. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to create a consistent, accessible pathway for making progress.
