About Andy
He uses a person-centered approach that puts the client’s voice first. Sessions focus on collaboration and practical choices, so people can find direction and take small steps that matter. Andy aims to create a calm, compassionate space where someone can talk without judgment.
Andy also considers systems and context when working through issues. That means he looks at relationships, work, culture, and other pressures that shape a person’s experience. He has supported people dealing with relationship struggles, communication problems, parenting stress, and financial worries.
People come to him with a wide range of concerns, including attachment and abandonment worries, guilt and shame, immigration-related stress, and feelings of isolation. He also helps those navigating forgiveness, divorce and separation, or questions about life purpose and men’s issues.
Sessions blend practical tools and reflective work. Andy draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and acceptance-based strategies. He encourages collaboration so goals and steps feel realistic and tailored to each person.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and values and take steps that align with what matters. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions where clarifying priorities matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. It is practical for anxiety, depression, and everyday problems that benefit from concrete tools. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and the person’s own goals to guide the work rather than a fixed agenda.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and which methods feel most helpful. That collaborative process helps shape sessions so they match the person’s needs and pace.
Please confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use mindfulness and behavioral experiments between sessions in real time to reinforce progress.
