Approach-driven online therapy to manage anger and stress
Andrew uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas to shape online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values; it can be useful for anger, anxiety and motivation problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships influence current patterns and helps people develop safer, more connected ways of relating.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try some ways of working, and adjust based on what helps. The focus is on what feels useful and doable in everyday life rather than fitting everyone to one method.
Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around family life, work breaks or travel. It also allows for different session rhythms - for example a shorter check-in when time is limited, or a longer conversation when more space is needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use these flexible arrangements to support ongoing progress without asking people to reshape their whole day.
