About Andrew
Andrew centers sessions on the person's own story and strengths. He listens for what matters most and helps people build on what already works in their lives. Sessions are straightforward and focused on practical steps rather than jargon or lengthy theory talks.
He often works on issues such as attachment and abandonment wounds, communication problems, caregiver stress, and the fallout from separation or divorce. He also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, isolation, mood difficulties, and questions about sexuality or life purpose. Narcissism and post-traumatic stress are among the concerns he addresses when they come up in a person's history.
Andrew uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide the work. He partners with clients to set clear goals and to try approaches that fit their needs. Progress is measured in small, meaningful changes people can notice in daily life.
People describe his style as rooted in respect for each person's expertise about their own life. He aims to make therapy a practical tool for coping, healing, and finding clearer direction.

How his approaches translate to online therapy
Andrew uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach helps people identify patterns in relationships and communication, then practices new ways of interacting to reduce conflict and increase connection. Another approach works with trauma-related symptoms by helping people process difficult memories and reduce the ways those memories shape daily life. These techniques aim to reduce distress and improve coping skills.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He works with each person to pick methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they review what is helping and adjust the plan as needed so the work stays useful and relevant to everyday life.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks or between commitments. It can also offer options for quieter conversations when face-to-face meetings are harder to arrange. Ask about the specific session formats offered when you complete the initial matching questionnaire to find what will fit your routine.
