About Andrea

Andrea Witt is a counsellor with eight years' experience working across a wide range of mental health concerns. She uses practical, goal-focused methods rooted in cognitive behavioural principles and draws on other therapeutic ideas to suit each person. Andrea knows the strain that major life changes can bring and aims to make therapy straightforward and approachable for people feeling overwhelmed.

Her style is warm and non-judgemental. Sessions focus on the here and now and on small, achievable changes. She listens carefully and helps people identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, then practises new responses together in session.

Andrea has particular experience supporting people after childbirth and with related anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. She also helps with stress, sleep problems, relationship and family concerns, grief, addiction-related difficulties, anger, career issues, and coping with life changes such as separation and divorce.

Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. These approaches are used flexibly to match a person’s needs and goals rather than as rigid rules.

Andrea is registered with NCPS. She practises in the United Kingdom and runs sessions in English. Prospective clients are encouraged to check current session options before booking so they can choose what suits them best.

How Andrea’s approaches can work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can support those facing anxiety, low mood or major life changes by focusing on what matters now rather than getting stuck on difficult thoughts. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms and manage everyday problems. It is often used for anxiety, depression, obsessive thinking and sleep issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Andrea treats approach selection as a collaborative conversation. She will help clarify what you want to change and suggest ways of working that fit your goals, then adapt techniques as you try them out.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practise techniques in the settings where problems typically occur. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use online sessions to keep momentum between appointments and to personalise homework and follow-up.
