About Andrea
Andrea Headington is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety and panic attacks. She supports those dealing with relationship strain, family problems, grief and life changes. Andrea aims to make it easier to talk about hard things and to begin finding a steadier way forward.
Andrea uses a warm, non-judgemental manner to help people feel heard. She focuses on what matters most to each person and works at a pace they find manageable. Sessions are practical and conversational, with time to reflect and plan small steps for change.
Her work draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which prioritises the person’s own goals and experiences, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. Those approaches are used to address anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and difficulties like panic attacks.
Andrea brings ten years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and holds BACP credentialing. She draws on that experience to support people through transitions such as separation, midlife changes, and challenges with self-esteem or intimacy.
People commonly seek her help for issues such as trauma and abuse, anger, social anxiety and sexual problems, including sex addiction. She also works with concerns about forgiveness, guilt, life purpose and young adult issues. Andrea aims to help people find clearer thinking, steadier emotions and more satisfying relationships.
Approaches and how online sessions can help
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person and their experience. The therapist listens without judgement and follows the client’s lead, helping them make sense of feelings and priorities. This approach often suits people who want time to be heard and to discover their own solutions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, manage panic attacks and shift unhelpful thinking. CBT can help with social anxiety, low mood and everyday coping strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then shape sessions together. That collaborative process helps decide whether to focus more on listening and exploration or on structured CBT techniques.
