About Andrea

Andrea Stott combines over a decade of clinical work with a practical focus on trauma, addiction and adult problems linked to difficult childhoods. She is a Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which guides her professional practice. Her manner is straightforward and calm, aimed at helping worried parents and adults find clearer ways forward.

Andrea offers a mix of short- and longer-term work depending on what a person needs.

Background and approach

She helps people manage anxiety, depression and bipolar symptoms alongside issues such as grief, compassion fatigue and ADHD. She also supports people facing challenges with eating, sleeping, body image and chronic health problems. Her background includes a Bachelor of Science with honours in Health, and a Master of Science in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

Andrea has additional postgraduate study in advanced psychotherapy, PTSD and grief and loss, and she practices with those study areas in mind. In sessions she uses a versatile approach. That can mean focusing on present difficulties and practical steps, or looking at past patterns that still cause pain.

She works collaboratively, helping each person set realistic goals and try techniques that fit their life. Sessions are offered in English and take place remotely. People are invited to explain their concerns in a short matching questionnaire and then book a time that suits them.

The starting point is a calm conversation about what would help most right now.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Approaches that suit remote therapy

Andrea uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy as two main tools. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Andrea will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest which methods might help most. The choice is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different lives. Video calls are useful when visual cues matter, phone sessions work well with lower bandwidth, and messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. This range makes it easier to fit therapy around work, family or medical commitments and keeps continuity when life is unpredictable.
