About Andrew

Andrew Clarke is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, anger and low mood. He invites people to tell their story and looks for strengths they can use to cope. He presents a calm, respectful presence and aims to support clients through change and difficult decisions.

Andrew trained with a degree in counselling and holds BACP registration, which is noted on his profile. He has five years of professional experience working in helping roles and also practises as a counselling supervisor.

In sessions he listens closely and follows what matters most to each person. He uses Client-Centred Therapy to allow a person’s own priorities to guide the work. He also draws on attachment-based ideas and emotionally-focused methods when relationships and connection are a key concern.

Andrew takes a practical view when life feels overwhelming. Conversations can include short-term goals, coping strategies and ways to manage strong feelings. He pays attention to patterns from the past that affect the present, and helps people think about steps forward.

People meet him for help with specific problems like panic attacks or money stress and for broader issues such as finding life purpose or dealing with shame. The aim is steady progress, shaped by the client’s values and pace.

Approaches That Guide Online Work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own priorities and strengths, letting the conversation follow what matters most to them and helping them decide next steps. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions, which can be useful for relationship stress and fears of abandonment. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying and naming feelings in relationships to improve communication and closeness.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and agree what to try first, then adjust based on what helps. This is a collaborative process that takes into account the client’s goals and preferred ways of working.

Confirm the exact online session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the profile. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps them focus. Registered or accredited professionals offer these kinds of flexible arrangements to help therapy fit into everyday life.
