Andrea Antrobus practises an integrative, client-centred approach that aims to make therapy feel straightforward and grounded. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and mindfulness alongside psychodynamic and solution-focused ideas to help people manage stress, anxiety and low mood. Andrea uses a warm, respectful style and keeps sessions practical and conversational.

Andrea has six years of experience in counselling and a BACP accreditation, which she uses to shape how she meets people.

Background and approach

She focuses on common life struggles such as relationship problems, self-esteem, coping with life changes, parenting concerns, eating and intimacy-related issues. She also works with people affected by trauma, abuse and addiction-related difficulties. Sessions are constructed around what the person brings to the room.

Andrea blends short-term tools from CBT and solution-focused methods with longer conversations about patterns and past experiences. Mindfulness practices are invited when they help with anxiety and grounding. Her way of working is collaborative: she listens first, then suggests small experiments and homework to try between sessions.

Practical steps are balanced with space to reflect on emotions and history. Andrea aims to help people reduce distress and build clearer ways of coping. She offers support for specific issues like body image, attachment concerns, blended family stress, abandonment and caregiver strain.

The emphasis is on simple, usable strategies that fit into everyday life.

How Andrea's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of sessions and encourages open, accepting dialogue to clarify what matters most. It helps with stress, relationship worries and building self-esteem by focusing on personal goals and feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours to identify practical steps that reduce anxiety and low mood; it often includes small tasks to try between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help with anxious thoughts and emotional overwhelm.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Andrea will discuss options and adapt methods based on the person's goals, preferences and how they respond. That collaborative conversation helps shape a plan that may combine short-term techniques with deeper reflection.

Online therapy offers flexibility and a range of ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, manage travel or childcare constraints, and maintain steady progress across weeks.
