About Andrea

Andrea Witt is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has eight years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, sleep problems, parenting strains, low self-esteem, depression, and addiction concerns. Andrea also addresses relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, eating concerns, anger, career-related stress, and compassion fatigue.

Her own experience of postnatal anxiety shapes how she supports clients who are new parents or adjusting to parenthood. She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy approaches and draws on related methods to tackle intrusive thoughts and repetitive worries. Sessions focus on practical steps and what can change now rather than lengthy theory.

Andrea combines CBT ideas with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness tools to help people notice patterns and try small, workable changes. She also uses client-centred and solution-focused techniques to prioritise what the person wants to achieve. This blend aims to keep the work focused and straightforward.

Sessions tend to be goal-oriented, with clear actions between meetings and attention to everyday life challenges. Andrea aims to help clients spot unhelpful thinking, practise new responses, and build routines that support sleep, mood, and coping. She works in English and accepts clients internationally.

Her background includes targeted work with postnatal mental health and birth-related difficulties, alongside broader practice with OCD-type concerns, grief, and midlife or career shifts. People who want direct, practical sessions that combine evidence-based techniques with mindfulness will find a clear structure in her approach.

How Andrea uses evidence-based approaches online

Andrea draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioural changes. CBT is practical and problem-focused, which can help with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, sleep issues, and compulsive patterns.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult feelings without getting stuck in them, and to clarify personal values that guide action. ACT can be useful when someone wants to make choices that matter despite ongoing worry or discomfort.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Andrea will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past, and then recommend ways of working that fit those aims. This is a collaborative process and may combine techniques from different models as needed.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find digital sessions useful for consistent progress alongside daily responsibilities.
