John Andrews, BACP

John Andrews is a counsellor who works from a human-centred perspective. He offers a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through their thoughts and everyday habits at their own pace. He aims to listen closely and help people feel understood before moving on to practical change.

With four years of experience he combines client-centred work with elements of psychodynamic thinking. That means sessions may look at how past experiences and early relationships still affect current feelings and decisions. He uses plain conversation to help bring hidden patterns into view rather than relying on jargon.

His practice addresses a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, and relationship and intimacy-related issues. He also supports people dealing with parenting pressures, sleep problems, career crossroads, and compassion fatigue. Thoughts and everyday habits are a regular focus in sessions when people want to shift how they think and act day to day.

John also works with more complex and varied issues such as ADHD, bipolar concerns, trauma and abuse, and matters connected to adoption and attachment. He can talk about body image, chronic illness, caregiving strain, and codependency in straightforward terms that relate to daily life.

He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, known as BACP. Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients. To begin, people complete an online matching questionnaire before arranging sessions.

Approaches that shape online therapy

John blends client-centred work and cognitive behavioural ideas in an accessible way. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people find their own answers; it suits people who need a steady, respectful space to talk. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts and everyday habits affect feelings and behaviour and is useful for tackling anxiety, low mood, and unhelpful routines.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as work progresses, so the plan fits the person rather than the other way round.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by saving travel time or allowing quicker check-ins during a work break. The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can still use online work to support reflection, behaviour change, and practical coping strategies without needing to meet in person.
