About Andy

Andy Green is a counsellor with three years' clinical experience who aims to help people feeling overwhelmed, stuck or disconnected. He creates a calm, supportive and non-judgemental space so clients can talk about anxiety, low mood, grief or relationship concerns. Andy is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He listens for patterns in how past and present events shape feelings and behaviour. Sessions focus on making sense of thoughts and emotions and on building practical ways to cope with stress, worry and low self-esteem. Conversations are shaped around what each person finds most helpful rather than a fixed agenda. Andy works in a way that adapts to the needs of each person. He draws mainly on client-centred ideas that prioritise the person’s own experience, and psychodynamic approaches that look at how earlier experiences can affect current relationships and choices. This mix is used to support people dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship strain, bereavement and other concerns listed in his profile. Before training as a therapist, Andy spent two decades working with many different people and situations. That background included supporting people with substance use, behaviour change and emotional regulation. He continues professional development, attends supervision and holds an enhanced Criminal Records Bureau check as noted in his biography. Sessions are offered for adults and young people who want short or longer term counselling. For practical details about how Andy runs appointments and scheduling, follow the booking steps on the site to match with him and arrange a session.

How these approaches work in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience. The therapist listens, reflects and helps you follow your own pace so you can name feelings and make choices. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood and relationship struggles by prioritising what matters to you.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how earlier life events and relationship patterns shape current feelings and behaviour. It uses talking to uncover repeated patterns and aims to increase self-understanding, which can be useful for issues such as attachment concerns, grief or repeated relationship problems.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The counsellor will work with you to test what helps, adjust the focus over time and agree goals together rather than imposing a fixed plan.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins where helpful. It can also mean choosing quieter surroundings or switching to audio-only for a lower-bandwidth option. Registered or accredited professionals can support similar therapeutic aims online, and Andy will discuss practical arrangements during the matching and scheduling steps.
