Life at times can be challenging and we can all feel the need for help and support, whether it be relationship problems, work, bereavement, trauma, emotional/sexual abuse, anxiety, depression, these can all have a massive effect on the quality of our life and if ignored, in some cases can result in various addictions as coping strategies. I believe everyone deserves the right to be treated as unique individuals and I can offer you that safe place to explore your feelings and reflect upon your life in a confidential, genuine and non-judgemental setting.

I am a mindfulness psychotherapist and EMDR therapist providing weekly online therapy sessions. I am passionate about the power of psychotherapy in helping us develop greater self-awareness, compassion and acceptance. It supports us in moving away from living our lives in survival mode to thriving in life and being able to access more joy and freedom. We will work together to explore and unpack the patterns of thought, core beliefs and behaviours that are preventing you from living your life fully and authentically.

I am a BACP accredited therapist, BA (1:1), MA (1:1), MA (1:1) with 9 years' experience. My specialism is in trauma-focused therapy. This is a very specific model of working that requires care and competence.

My name is Andrea, and I understand the profound impact of grief and loss. It can be very isolating and it can bring up a myriad of emotions such as guilt, regret, anger, desperation and helplessness. Is your loss affecting your relationship, your career, your desire to be with friends, your ability to see a future for yourself or to do the things you once loved to do? Are you experiencing anxiety for the first time, re-living events over and over in your head? You are probably not sleeping or eating very well either. These are all very common issues to experience after a loss or bereavement.

Let's face it, life can be a struggle. As we do our best to navigate our way through there are times when we come to the end of our own resources. It's ok to ask for help and that might be very thing that gives you a different perspective on your situation. Your circumstances may not change but how you think about them can. You don't have to be in a crisis to benefit from counselling. You may feel that your life is not as you expected it to be. Counselling can give you the space to visualise your dreams and understand the parts that have been holding you back from living your best life.

Life can throw many challenges and sometimes we can get a bit stuck and not sure what to do to change the situation. I understand that it can be difficult to ask for help but seeking some help is the first step to improving your situation.. Sometimes it is easier talking to someone out side your family circle or friendship group about an issue that is causing you or your family distress and instead to talk to a professional therapist I offer a free 15 minute consultation if you are unsure if talking therapy can help. Therapy can help build self esteem, reduce anxiety , improve relationships with family and peers .
