About Andrew

Andrew Clarke is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of professional experience. He works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, anger and depression. He also helps those facing major life changes and the everyday pressures that come with them.

Andrew uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy and attachment-informed ideas to look at how feelings and patterns shape difficult moments. He often helps people name emotions that feel confusing and trace how those feelings link to repeated behaviours. Sessions are conversational and focused on understanding what happens between thoughts, feelings and actions.

He draws on client-centred work to keep conversations focused on the person in the room, and uses solution-focused techniques when people want practical steps to try between sessions. Psychodynamic ideas may be used to notice recurring patterns that come from past experiences. This mix lets him move between exploring past influences and trying new ways of responding in the present.

People who come to Andrew often want clearer communication, fewer angry outbursts, or ways to cope with panic or low mood. He also works with concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, guilt and shame, and problems with money or life purpose. Sessions aim to help people recognise patterns and try different ways of handling them.

Andrew’s background includes a degree in counselling and experience as a counselling supervisor. He offers work in English from the United Kingdom and asks people to follow the site sign-up steps to begin the matching process.

How Andrew brings EFT and attachment ideas into online work

Andrew uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and work with hard-to-identify emotions. EFT focuses on feelings and interaction patterns that keep problems repeating, which can help with relationship tensions, anxiety and mood problems.

He also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early bonds affect present-day responses. This approach helps people understand why they might feel abandoned, isolated or overly controlling, and supports new ways of relating to those feelings. Client-Centred Therapy is part of his practice too, so conversations centre on the person’s experience and priorities rather than being led by the therapist.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work itself. Andrew will talk with each person about goals and preferences and will test different ways of working together. That means sessions can shift between exploring feelings, noticing patterns from the past, and trying practical steps at home.

If you want to know the exact session formats offered, please confirm options before booking. The online route can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting sessions take place from wherever you are able to join. Many people find that this practical flexibility helps them keep therapy consistent while juggling work and family commitments.
