How Andrew’s approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person first. The therapist follows the client's pace and priorities, offering support while people name their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and then tries new ways of thinking and acting to reduce symptoms. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, practical steps and what works now, which can be useful when someone wants quicker changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Andrew will talk with each person about goals, past experiences, and what feels most helpful. He aims to match techniques to needs in a collaborative way and will adjust the plan as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow brief check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. They can also let people use methods like thought records or behavioral experiments between sessions, which ties into CBT and solution-focused work.
