About Andrew
Andrew Boorman is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. He helps people with stress, anxiety, low mood, LGBTQ issues, career difficulties and coping with life changes. He also supports people dealing with trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions and sleep or eating problems.
His sessions focus on clear, practical work. He listens first to understand what matters most. Then he and the client identify patterns of thought and behaviour to try different ways of responding. Sessions are spoken in plain language and aim to make small changes that can be used day to day.
Andrew draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centred and psychodynamic ideas. That means he looks at how thoughts, feelings and past experiences connect, and uses simple exercises to test new approaches. He also uses solution-focused steps to set short-term goals and track progress.
He describes his role as helping people talk through difficult feelings and find manageable next steps. He works with issues such as grief, anger, bipolar and depression, along with attachment and identity concerns. He supports people with problems linked to money, work and men’s issues.
Sessions are delivered in English and he accepts international clients. Andrew uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session via the See online therapy options button.
How CB T and talking therapies work online
Andrew uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviours. CBT focuses on small, practical changes you can try between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or change responses to stress.He also draws on client-centred ideas that prioritise listening and the person's own goals. That approach focuses on what the person wants to work on and lets them steer the pace and topics. He uses psychodynamic ideas to consider how earlier experiences might be linked to current patterns, offering another lens for understanding repeated difficulties.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they will decide whether to focus on CBT exercises, conversational exploration, or a mix of methods based on what fits the client's needs.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a weekly routine and avoiding travel time. Depending on current session options, this can make it easier to schedule short check-ins around work or to have longer sessions without a commute. Confirm which session formats are available before booking so arrangements suit everyday life.
