About Andrew

Andrew Clarke greets people with calm focus and practical support. He helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low or stuck after life changes. He works in straightforward language and aims to make conversations easy to follow.

Andrew listens for what matters most to each person and uses that to shape sessions. He treats the person as the expert on their own story and looks for strengths to build on.

Background and approach

Sessions are framed around what the client wants to change and what feels manageable for them. His background includes a degree in counselling and five years of professional practice in the United Kingdom. He is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

He also works as a counselling supervisor. Andrew draws on a mix of approaches to meet different needs. He uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships influence present patterns.

Emotion-focused work helps people name and move through difficult feelings. Solution-focused and client-centred techniques keep sessions practical and goal-directed when needed. People contact him for a range of difficulties including relationship strain, panic and mood problems, anger or struggles with self-image and shame.

He also supports people dealing with grief, separation and the stress of caregiving. Conversations are paced to suit the individual and to help them try things between sessions. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.

To begin, a short questionnaire is completed and then a session is arranged according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns in a few simple steps. It helps people understand repeated reactions, such as trust or withdrawal, and how those patterns affect current relationships. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters most to the person, helping them find their own solutions and build confidence in their choices. Emotionally-focused therapy helps people name strong emotions and work through them in the moment, which can ease panic, grief or anger and change how someone responds to distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will discuss options based on what you want to achieve, your preferences and how you feel in early sessions. This collaborative approach means methods can shift as needs change over time.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and reading non-verbal cues. Phone work can fit a short check-in or suit lower bandwidth situations. Live chat or text messaging can help when someone prefers writing or needs brief, flexible contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on practical progress.
