About Andrea
Andrea Stokes is a counsellor who focuses on helping people find calmer ways to manage stress and anxiety. She uses a gentle, person-centred style that prioritises each person’s experience and pace. Andrea brings eight years of practice to conversations about mood, confidence and painful life events.
Andrea aims to make sessions straightforward and down to earth. She listens first and follows the person’s lead, helping them name what feels hard and notice what matters most. She also uses hypnotherapy where it may help with symptoms such as panic, phobias, smoking cessation or sleep difficulties.
Her work often involves supporting people through grief, trauma and recovery after sexual assault and abuse. Andrea also helps those navigating relationship strain, career stress and feelings of isolation or shame. The focus is on practical steps people can use between sessions to cope day to day.
Andrea is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration is listed as BACP above and appears in her professional details. She practises in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English.
People wanting to begin a conversation complete a short questionnaire and book a time that suits them. Andrea aims to create a calm space where people can talk honestly and work at a pace that feels right.
How Andrea’s approaches work for online therapy
Andrea uses Client-Centred Therapy to create a space where the person leads the conversation. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting and helping people find their own answers, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and relationship worries.She also offers hypnotherapy as a complementary option. Hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and focused attention to support changes in habits, tackle panic or phobias, and ease symptoms like insomnia or nicotine dependence.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Andrea will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most comfortable, then try methods that fit the person’s needs. The aim is to find a way of working that suits the individual rather than imposing a single technique.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy life and avoiding travel time. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule short check-ins around work or other commitments.
