About Andrea
Andrea Headington helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports those facing relationship issues, family conflict, grief and anger. Her work covers intimacy-related concerns and people coping with major life changes.
Andrea offers a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can say what they need to say. She focuses on listening first, then working with each person to find practical steps forward. Sessions are straightforward and aimed at making everyday life feel more manageable.
Background and approach
She brings ten years of professional experience to her practice and holds BACP registration from the United Kingdom. Andrea draws on familiar, evidence-informed methods to help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and build better ways of coping. Her approach mixes client-centred listening with practical cognitive behavioural techniques.
That means she pays attention to each person's story, while also trying specific tools to reduce symptoms and improve mood. People often leave sessions with small, doable tasks to try between meetings. Andrea works with issues such as panic attacks, social anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship strains.
She can also support people through divorce, forgiveness work, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose and midlife change. Her aim is to help people feel steadier and more in control of daily life.

Approaches Andrea lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Andrea will review your concerns and goals and suggest methods that suit your needs. She encourages collaboration so you can try different ideas and agree what helps most for your day-to-day life.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let you see body language and create a stronger sense of presence, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for shorter check-ins, immediate reflection, or when you prefer writing things down. These options give flexibility so sessions can fit around work, family and other commitments.
