About Andrew

Dr. Andrew G. Thomas uses a practical, structured approach to therapy built around Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

He explains problems plainly and helps people try concrete steps to feel better. His style is straightforward and collaborative, aimed at people who want tools they can use between sessions. He focuses on stress, anxiety and depression, and on panic attacks and mood difficulties.

He also helps with low confidence, relationship intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, anger, self-esteem and career-related stress.

Background and approach

Young adult issues, loneliness and questions about life purpose are additional areas he supports. Sessions follow a clear process. Together they identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns.

Then they try practical strategies and skills to change those patterns. The aim is symptom relief now and stronger self-management later. Andrew brings four years of clinical practice alongside more than a decade as an academic psychologist and Associate Professor.

That research and teaching background informs how he explains issues and picks techniques. He uses plain language to describe the reasons behind interventions so people understand both the what and the why. Therapy is offered in English from the United Kingdom and international clients are accepted.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging for flexible access.

Sessions & fees

CBT-focused therapy available online

Dr Andrew G. Thomas primarily practises Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and uses structured exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, panic attacks and phobias and also for improving sleep, managing anger and building confidence.

His approach is collaborative. He will work with each person to decide which techniques suit their concerns and goals. That means tailoring session tasks, homework and the level of structure so the plan fits what an individual needs and prefers.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face discussion and visual cues, phone sessions can be a quicker check-in or better when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits short written exchanges and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, study or family life.
