About Andrea
Andrea Headington helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship and family problems, grief, intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem and depression. She also focuses on issues like divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, infidelity, life purpose and midlife change. Andrea uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people work through difficult moments and find better ways forward.
Andrea creates a calm space where clients can talk without feeling judged.
Background and approach
She aims to listen carefully and reflect back what matters most so people can make sense of painful feelings. She encourages small steps that build confidence and ease day-to-day pressures. Her work draws on client-centred therapy, which means she follows the person’s pace and priorities.
She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect and how to make helpful changes. These approaches guide practical strategies in sessions. Andrea has ten years of professional experience and offers supportive, down-to-earth care.
She explains ideas in plain language and focuses on what will help now. Many people come for relief from panic attacks, social anxiety, relationship strain or the shock of life transitions. People who choose Andrea can expect a calm, respectful space for honest conversation and practical steps.

How Andrea works online
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical techniques to reduce symptoms like panic attacks, social anxiety and low mood. It often involves setting small goals and trying different ways of responding to difficult situations.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try first and how to adapt them over time.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time or allowing a shorter check-in when schedules are tight. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available and which will suit your routine.
