Andrea Antrobus, BACP

Andrea Antrobus is an integrative therapist licensed in the United Kingdom and Ireland who brings six years of experience as a counsellor and child therapist. She works with a broad range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, maternal mental health, self-esteem, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, career transitions, eating disorders, new mothers and women’s issues, as well as the effects of physical trauma and emotional abuse. Andrea combines practical techniques with an empathic, person-focused stance to meet each client's needs.

Her style is warm and interactive, grounded in respect, sensitivity and compassion, and delivered without judgment. Andrea’s therapeutic approach draws on Cognitive Behavioural methods to address unhelpful thinking and behaviour, client-centered principles to create a supportive therapeutic relationship, psychodynamic ideas to explore deeper patterns, and solution-focused strategies to identify practical steps forward. She adapts conversation and treatment plans to reflect each individual’s situation and goals.

Andrea is registered with BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and aims to support clients as they take courageous steps toward greater wellbeing and more satisfying relationships. She offers guidance and encouragement for people ready to make changes in their lives.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Andrea frequently uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on building a respectful, empathetic relationship so clients can explore their feelings and find their own solutions. This approach is well suited to issues like self-esteem, relationship concerns and the emotional impact of life changes.

She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT is practical and structured, and can be effective for anxiety, depression and stress-related problems.

Solution-Focused Therapy is another element of Andrea’s practice, offering brief, goal-oriented work that helps clients identify small, concrete steps toward improvement. This approach is useful when people want clear strategies for coping and moving forward.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Andrea works collaboratively with each person to determine the best fit based on needs, goals and preferences. She adapts methods over time as progress and circumstances evolve.

Online sessions available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make therapy flexible and accessible. These options allow clients to attend from different locations, fit sessions into busy schedules and maintain continuity of care, including for international clients who cannot meet in person.
