Andy Green, BACP

Andy Green is a counsellor who helps people make sense of feeling overwhelmed, stuck or disconnected. He uses a calm, supportive and non-judgemental approach so people can talk about anxiety, low mood, relationship problems and loss. Andy is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and has an enhanced Criminal Records Bureau check.

He listens to what matters now and explores how past experiences shape present patterns. Sessions look at thoughts, feelings and behaviour to help people notice repeating patterns that cause distress. The aim is to build clearer understanding and practical ways to feel more in control.

Andy describes his work as flexible and tailored. He draws on client-centred and psychodynamic ideas to match the way he works to each person. That means some weeks focusing on what is happening in the moment, and other times looking at deeper life patterns that affect relationships and self-worth.

Before training as a counsellor, Andy spent 20 years supporting people from many backgrounds. He has worked with issues such as anxiety, depression, substance use, grief, communication difficulties and anger. He also supported people with behaviour change and emotional regulation skills.

Andy offers short and longer term therapy for adults and young people. He keeps up to date with continuing professional development and attends regular supervision to reflect on his practice. If someone is unsure what to expect, he encourages them to ask questions before booking.

How Andy's approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in the room and on being heard. It emphasises empathy and honest listening, which helps when someone is struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem or relationship worries.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that come from past experiences and how they shape current feelings and relationships. This can be useful for people wanting to understand repeating cycles such as attachment or avoidance patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each client about goals, needs and preferences, and then try different ways of working to find what helps best. That process is collaborative and reviewed as therapy progresses.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example when someone needs appointments outside normal hours or wants to avoid travel. It can allow shorter check-ins or quieter sessions that suit someone who needs less screen time.
