About Andrea
Andrea Kelliher is a counsellor who draws on several therapeutic approaches to help people facing depression and related concerns. She holds BACP registration, practises in the United Kingdom, and communicates in English. Her work aims to help people understand what they are experiencing and decide on realistic next steps.
Andrea uses a relationship-focused style. Sessions usually start by clarifying what a person wants to change. She listens for patterns that link current struggles to past experiences and helps people name those patterns in simple terms.
Background and approach
Her background includes an HN Access Diploma in Social Work and several years working in NHS settings, including Talk Wandsworth, where she supported people with social anxiety, grief, depression and relationship problems. She has also provided independent practice counselling and worked in community settings in London. In sessions she blends client-centred, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioural ideas.
That means she offers a warm, non-judgemental space, looks at how earlier experiences affect today, and introduces practical steps to break unhelpful cycles. The balance of listening and practical work shifts to match each person’s needs. People come to Andrea for a wide range of issues beyond depression.
These include stress, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem problems, attachment and abandonment questions, body image, communication difficulties, control issues, and isolation. She helps people identify goals and build skills to move towards them.

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
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and together decide which combination of approaches to try. That collaborative decision is reviewed as therapy progresses to keep the work relevant and useful.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can work when a lower bandwidth option is needed. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer to write rather than speak. These options offer flexibility to fit sessions around work, travel or family commitments while keeping the focus on the therapeutic goals.
