About Andrew
Andrew Boorman is a counsellor who helps people handle stress, anxiety and low mood. He commonly supports clients with trauma and abuse, relationship strain, addiction concerns and issues around self‑esteem. Andrew is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP, and has five years of professional practice.
He aims to make the first steps into therapy straightforward. Sessions focus on listening, clear practical steps and simple tools to manage symptoms day to day.
Background and approach
He works to create a non‑judgemental space where people can talk about difficult feelings. His approach draws on several ways of working. Client‑centred ideas place the person’s experience at the heart of sessions.
Cognitive behavioural techniques help spot thought patterns and test different responses. Psychodynamic thinking looks at how past experiences shape current behaviour and feelings. Andrew also uses solution‑focused methods when clients want short, goal‑oriented work.
This may suit people looking for practical plans and quick changes rather than long‑term exploration. He adapts the mix of approaches to what each person needs. Andrew has worked across common life challenges including grief, workplace stress, ADHD and compassion fatigue.
He also supports people with LGBT concerns, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger and relationship issues. Sessions are offered in English and he works with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.

Working online with practical therapy approaches
Andrew often combines client‑centred work with cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). Client‑centred work means the session follows the person’s lead and focuses on their feelings and priorities, which helps when someone needs to feel heard and understood. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and offers clear techniques to reduce anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and agree a plan together. Some people prefer more practical, short‑term work; others want to look at deeper patterns. Andrew adapts methods to fit each person’s aims rather than using one fixed model.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people see body language and build rapport across distances. Phone sessions work well when video is difficult or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text‑based messaging suit shorter check‑ins, written reflection or people who find typing easier than speaking. Together these options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family life and travel while keeping a steady course of support.
