About Andrea
Andrea Sprio is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with ten years of professional experience. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials and focuses on helping people with relationship and family concerns. Andrea aims to offer calm, respectful support when life feels hard.
She listens first and adapts sessions to each person's situation. Conversations are shaped around what matters to the client, and plans are practical and achievable. Andrea uses an approach that centres the client's experience rather than imposing a fixed method.
Background and approach
Andrea often helps people dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, grief and self-esteem difficulties. She also supports those facing intimacy issues, addiction concerns, eating or sleeping problems, and the emotional effects of trauma and abuse. Additional focus areas include attachment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family challenges and fatherhood issues.
Sessions can also address panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, self-harm, anger, social anxiety and young adult concerns. Andrea works with matters linked to chronic illness, body image and guilt or shame. She aims to create a space where clients can talk through painful topics at a manageable pace.
Her style combines attentive listening with practical conversation. Andrea helps people notice patterns in their relationships and stories, then try small changes that fit daily life. If someone is unsure what to expect, she recommends starting with a short matching questionnaire and a brief initial session to agree goals.

Approaches Andrea lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
How Andrea works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea will collaborate with each person to choose or adapt methods that match their goals, preferences and what they want to change. This is a shared process that begins with a conversation about what matters most to the client.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins during a break. They also let people choose whether to use video or other methods depending on comfort and practicalities. Discussing format options early helps pick what will work best for day-to-day life.
