About Andrea

Andrea Reid is a counsellor with three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She focuses on common life stresses and moments that feel overwhelming. Andrea works with people who are struggling with anxiety, stress, self-esteem and motivation.

She also supports those facing career uncertainty and parenting challenges. Andrea believes clients know their own stories and already have strengths to draw on.

Background and approach

In sessions she aims to create a straightforward, respectful space where people can talk through what is worrying them. Conversations are practical and down-to-earth, with time spent exploring small steps forward. Her approach combines client-centred listening with practical techniques from cognitive behavioural ideas and reflections drawn from psychodynamic thinking.

That mix helps people spot unhelpful patterns, try new ways of coping and understand where their behaviours come from. Andrea adapts what she offers to each person rather than following a fixed formula.

She also works with a range of additional concerns, including pregnancy and postpartum issues, bereavement linked to illness such as cancer, caregiver stress, money and employment worries, and problems like hoarding and dissociation. Andrea is mindful of midlife and ageing matters and supports people facing fertility or family conflict stresses.

Sessions are available in English and delivered online in formats that suit different needs. Andrea describes therapy as a collaborative process and aims to help people build confidence and clearer direction in daily life.

Approaches that suit online therapy and life changes

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps people feel heard, clarify their priorities and build on their own strengths. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours feed problems and provides practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage panic attacks and improve mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Andrea will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit best for the issues, goals and preferences you bring. That way sessions can combine gentle reflection with skills practice when that is helpful.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone meetings, live chat or text messaging to make therapy easier to fit into daily life. Video calls are useful when visual contact helps the conversation, phone sessions work well with limited bandwidth, live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or quieter pacing. These options aim to make therapy flexible and accessible so people can focus on progress rather than travel or scheduling.
