About Andrea

Andrea Witt is a counsellor with eight years' experience supporting people through a wide range of mental health challenges. She holds NCPS as a credential and works in the United Kingdom. She is approachable and draws on practical techniques to help people move forward when life feels hard.

Her background combines cognitive behavioural work with elements from several other therapies. Andrea says her interest in post-natal mental health grew from her own experience after her child was born, which shaped how she listens and responds to new parents and those adjusting to parenthood. Her work often focuses on issues such as anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts and obsessive patterns.

Sessions tend to be goal-focused and grounded in present-day concerns. Andrea uses clear, step-by-step methods to break down worries, change unhelpful thinking patterns and tackle behaviours that get in the way of daily life. She aims to make therapy practical and relevant to each person’s situation.

People describe her manner as warm and non-judgemental, and she aims to create a space where difficult feelings can be talked through honestly. Her practice also addresses matters like grief, relationship and family strain, anger, addictions and career stress.

Andrea combines Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness ideas, and she draws on solution-focused techniques when helpful. This flexible mix lets her tailor sessions to the person’s goals and pace.

How Andrea’s approaches work online

Andrea uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside mindfulness and solution-focused ideas to guide her work. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and is useful for anxiety, low mood and intrusive thoughts. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people make room for difficult feelings while committing to actions that match their values, which can be useful for ongoing worry and life transitions.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Andrea will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try methods that fit their needs. She adapts the mix of techniques over time so sessions stay relevant and practical.

The original biography does not specify which online formats are used, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. For many people that flexibility helps them keep therapy consistent alongside family and work commitments.
