Andrew Medlow
Supportive person-centred counselling for life challenges
About Andrew
Andrew Medlow uses a person-centred, collaborative approach to counselling. He works to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and low mood. He presents as a supportive guide while clients make sense of what they are facing.
Andrew holds a BACP credential and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. His work draws on several practical approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.
Background and approach
He also uses attachment-based and emotionally-focused ideas to look at how past relationships shape current feelings. Sessions focus on small, doable steps that fit into daily life rather than abstract theory. People come to him for a wide range of worries such as addiction, grief, anger, career uncertainty and compassion fatigue.
He also supports people dealing with ADHD, bipolar mood issues and challenges around self-esteem and body image. Andrew pays attention to how family of origin and fatherhood issues can influence present choices. In the room he listens for the values and strengths that matter to the individual.
Together he and the client map practical ways to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Progress is measured by what the person notices in their life, such as better sleep, clearer decision-making or steadier moods. Sessions are offered in English and take place remotely.
Andrew aims to help people build skills they can use after therapy ends, so improvements last beyond individual sessions.

How therapy approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that reflect those values, which can ease anxiety and increase motivation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying new behaviours to reduce distress and improve mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship experiences affect current emotions and helps people notice and change unhelpful relational patterns.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively with each person to match methods to their needs, goals and preferences. That means trying different strategies together and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can suit quick check-ins or those who prefer written reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while maintaining a consistent routine with registered or accredited professionals.
