Hi, I’m Andy, a counsellor and psychotherapist based in Farnham, Surrey. I offer both in-person sessions and online therapy for adults across the UK. I believe therapy is about understanding yourself more deeply and finding ways to live with greater clarity and self-awareness. Many people come to me feeling stuck, anxious, or uncertain about who they are or what they want. Together, we can make sense of the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that may be holding you back, so you can move forward with more confidence in your life.

At points in life, we can feel lost or overwhelmed by our thoughts, feelings and experiences. Sometimes it's difficult to talk to the people around us about what we're going through, and we can be left feeling less able to cope. Within a collaborative therapeutic relationship, you can find new perspectives and a greater understanding of yourself, your past experiences, your relationships and the challenges life presents you with. I am committed to providing you with a non-judgemental, confidential, empathetic and supportive environment, where together we can work towards lasting change and a more fulfilling life

We all experience difficulties and challenges in our lives. Sometimes, problems can feel overwhelming, even unbearable. At times, we may feel that we ourselves are the problem. I offer a non-judgemental, confidential space where, together, we can explore the challenges you face. Some facts of our lives cannot be changed – having happened already or, for example, illness or impending loss. As your therapist, my aim is to offer you the relationship and support you need to reflect on and be more able to cope with difficult life events.

I am an experienced Counsellor, Psychotherapist and clinical Supervisor. The constant in my approach is to focus upon my client’s needs, their issues, and difficulties, to remain open and empathic to how they experience their lives. In this way I hope to be able to build trust with my clients to support them in their journey in counselling and supervision. Clients’ needs are different and unique so it is important to understand their world view, their fears, hopes, and aspirations.

Whatever you are feeling now, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Life can be tricky sometimes and you may think that people can't understand you because of what you are going through. Sometimes you need someone to listen to you, to help you to understand what is actually happening. I can help you to walk through this journey, to find a way to a safe place which respects your values and beliefs. You can talk about any issues that bother you and explore your emotions without judgment. I have 19 years of training and experience in a broad range of topics in psychotherapy counselling and educational therapy.

With 25 years of experience in counselling & psychotherapy I aim to help couples & individuals understand emotions and how to get more from their relationships. Some want to renew a long gone passion and others are just fighting to stay together - the answer is often found by looking at new ways to communicate with each other rather than fixing a disagreement. There will be reasons for your behaviour that make sense and I will help you to uncover these throughout our sessions together. You may have an ‘arguing style’ and by looking more deeply, at your inner hurt and anger, we will be able to discover what is really going on.

I am warm, caring and compassionate and able to provide an open, non-judgemental space for you to share and explore your difficulties. Together we will work to understand how they have developed and what can be done to improve your wellbeing.

I believe in the power of nature to heal and provide a space with views of a beautiful garden as well as the opportunity to work outside either walking in the forest or seated by a pond and waterfall. In the work we can harness the natural environment to help calm a dysregulated nervous system and bring back a sense of safety and control. Feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges happens to us all at times. I provide a safe space to explore what is causing your pain and understand where you are in all of this. This could be the first step in prioritising yourself and your own needs and finding lasting happiness.

Life can feel messy, confusing, or stuck — and that’s exactly what we’ll explore. Counselling with me isn’t about fixing you; it’s noticing the quirks, contradictions, and hidden patterns that make you… you. Expect curious conversation, gentle reflection, laughter where needed, and those tiny “oh… that actually makes sense” moments. I’m warm, approachable, a little unconventional, and fully focused on helping you understand yourself and shift in ways that actually stick. I work with adults and children aged 11 plus.

The human experience is complex, and everyone needs support at times to navigate life's challenges. Through my previous work as a diplomat, my own lived experiences - and my contemporary in-depth masters level psychotherapy training - I understand how unhelpful and unfulfilling patterns can form in some of the ways we think, feel, behave and interact, and how to help you heal and make the lasting changes you'd like to see. We'll work together in a confidential therapeutic alliance in which you're free to express freely, while moving towards an easier, more authentic way of living which feels in line with you are.

Stuck, exhausted, numbing it somehow. Relationships fraying, drinking more than you'd like. Lying awake at 3am thinking about nothing and everything. You don't need the right words, just the feeling that something needs to change. That's enough to start. I'm a humanistic counsellor trained in transactional analysis. I'm interested in you as a whole person, the patterns you carry, where they came from, and whether they're still working for you. Often they're not. I work with anxiety, depression, addiction, alcoholism, and relationships, with others and with yourself. These things rarely show up alone. Honest, unhurried, human.
