About Andy
Andy Fairie is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing low mood and related problems. He works with individuals dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and addiction. He aims to create an open space where people can speak about difficult feelings without fear of judgment.
He uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect. Sessions focus on finding one manageable change that can lead to improvement in other areas.
Background and approach
He aims for practical steps clients can use between meetings. Andy has three years of professional experience in helping people with trauma and abuse, grief and self-esteem concerns. He also works with obsessive thoughts, panic attacks, chronic illness and a range of mood difficulties.
His background includes writing and delivering presentations on listening and communication. Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. He runs appointments during office hours, at weekends and on Sunday afternoons to fit different schedules.
Costs vary with location and use a cancel-anytime subscription model. People who want to begin can select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a session according to availability. Andy aims to listen carefully and help people take small steps toward feeling better.

Online support
Working online, he adapts CBT tools to each person's situation. That may include short behavioural experiments between sessions, thought records shared in writing, or role-play during a video call. He discusses options with each person so they choose what fits their goals and preferences in a collaborative way.
Online sessions can be easier to fit around work and family life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a good shorter check-in. Live chat or text messaging helps when people prefer writing or want ongoing brief contact between appointments. These formats make therapy more flexible while keeping the focus on practical steps and clear goals.
