About Andrea
Andrea Bartlett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, grief and loss, and depression. Andrea aims to make starting therapy feel less daunting, offering steady support as clients take that first step.
She creates a calm, non-judgemental space in sessions where people can talk openly about difficult thoughts and feelings. The style is straightforward and compassionate, with room to reflect and to try practical ways of coping. Conversations are paced to each person’s needs rather than following a fixed formula.
Andrea helps people work through life changes and relationship concerns by listening closely and exploring what matters most to them. She also supports people dealing with the effects of trauma and abuse, and those who want to rebuild self-esteem. Sessions look at small, manageable steps as well as longer-term goals.
Her approach is collaborative: she and the client decide together what to focus on and how to proceed. Andrea explains options in plain language and checks in about what is or is not helping as therapy progresses.
For anyone worried about starting therapy, Andrea emphasises that asking for help takes courage. She offers steady, empathetic support and practical ways to manage difficult emotions and everyday challenges.
Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online
Andrea works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding feelings and building practical skills. One common approach involves helping people notice patterns in thoughts and behaviours, then practising small changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. This approach can help with stress, depression and self-esteem issues.Another approach centres on grief and loss through careful listening and paced reflection. It supports people in naming their feelings, making sense of what has happened, and finding ways to carry on that feel manageable. This can help when adjusting to big life changes or recovery after trauma.
Finding the right method is part of the work. Andrea treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss which techniques fit a person's needs, goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adapts the plan as therapy moves forward.
If you are considering online sessions, check which formats Andrea currently offers before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, school or family life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it simpler to continue therapy during periods of change while keeping the focus on practical progress and discussion.
