Andy Green, BACP

Andy Green is a counsellor who helps people make sense of hard times. He offers a calm, non-judgemental space to talk about anxiety, low mood, relationship problems and grief. He aims to help clients feel heard and begin to regain a sense of control.

He draws on client-centred and psychodynamic approaches and adapts his way of working to each person. That means conversations focus on what matters to the individual and on patterns that link past and present experience. Sessions are intended to be responsive and practical rather than one-size-fits-all.

Before training as a therapist, Andy spent 20 years working with people from diverse backgrounds. During that time he supported people with anxiety, depression, substance use and behaviour change, and helped them manage emotional regulation and thinking-feeling patterns.

Andy is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He follows their practice and ethical guidelines, takes part in ongoing professional development and attends regular supervision. He also holds a clear enhanced Criminal Records Bureau check.

He works with adults and young people on a range of concerns including stress, self-esteem, bereavement, attachment and addiction. He offers both short-term and longer-term counselling and psychotherapy, tailoring the length to each person’s needs.

How these approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It involves open listening, reflecting back what is said and helping people find their own solutions. This approach is useful for worries about self-worth, stress and relationship communication.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that come from past relationships and experiences. It helps people notice repeated ways of relating and how past events affect feelings now. This can be helpful for attachment issues, unresolved grief and long-standing emotional patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss what feels most useful and adjust methods over time. This is a collaborative process based on your goals, history and what you prefer.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people keep continuity of care when life circumstances change. Many registered or accredited professionals use online sessions to help clients maintain regular contact and progress without disrupting daily routines.
