Andrea Stott is a counsellor with twelve years' experience working in the United Kingdom.
About Andrea
Andrea Stott is a counsellor with twelve years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She is a Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which means she follows the BACP code of practice. Andrea focuses on problems that stem from difficult childhood experiences and on complex trauma, addiction and grief.
Andrea aims for clear, practical conversations. She helps people understand how early experiences shape current behaviour. Sessions often involve making sense of patterns, trying small changes and testing what helps in day-to-day life.
Background and approach
She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to look at thoughts and behaviours, and on client-centred approaches to keep the work grounded in the person's experience. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas are used when relationship patterns and close attachments are the main concern. Andrea also works with stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar mood concerns and difficulties with sleep and eating.
She supports people facing life changes, caregiver strain, cancer related worries, and those dealing with abandonment or adoption-related issues. People can expect a collaborative style that balances talking through feelings with practical steps. Andrea adapts work to each person's needs, paying attention to safety and pacing when trauma is part of the history.
Sessions are offered in English and take place online using a range of formats.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea typically discusses different options with each person and together they agree what to try first, then review what is helping and adapt the plan as needed. This keeps the work collaborative and responsive to how a person feels and what they want to achieve.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make counselling more flexible. Video is useful for a richer face-to-face feel, phone calls work when a camera is not wanted or bandwidth is limited, and messaging can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer typing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while still working with experienced, registered professionals.
