Corinna Andrews
Compassionate person-centred counsellor with practical tools
About Corinna
Corinna Andrews offers support for people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also has a focus on working with people who are hearing impaired. Corinna aims to create a calm, respectful space where someone can say what they are feeling and begin to make sense of it.
Her approach is person-centred, which means the conversation follows the client’s concerns rather than a strict agenda.
Background and approach
She also uses techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different ways of coping. Sessions move at a pace set by the client and focus on practical steps as well as understanding feelings. Corinna is a BACP member, which links her to professional standards in counselling and psychotherapy in the United Kingdom.
She has worked in health settings for many years, including roles in mental health, primary care and with charities supporting people in distress. Those roles shaped her practical, down-to-earth style. Her background includes work in GP surgeries and as a placement counsellor for a mental health charity, alongside earlier roles supporting young people.
This variety means she is used to helping people with a broad range of concerns and life situations. Sessions are offered in English and she provides several online formats to suit different needs. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How Corinna’s approaches work online
Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of the session. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what they hear and follows the client’s lead so the person sets the pace and topics. This approach helps when someone needs space to be heard and to make sense of difficult feelings.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to test unhelpful thinking and try different coping strategies. CBT can be useful for anxiety, low mood and stress where changing patterns of thought and behaviour helps day-to-day functioning.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Corinna will talk through different ways of working and match methods to the client’s goals, preferences and needs. That choice is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make counselling more flexible. Video calls are close to face-to-face meetings, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options help fit therapy around work, family or mobility constraints and make it easier to keep appointments.
