About Andrew
Andrew Buurman is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has three years of professional experience. He works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem issues and career concerns. He also supports people struggling with addiction and related problems.
Andrew uses a straightforward, conversational style in sessions. He listens and reflects back what people say, then helps them notice patterns and try different ways of responding. Sessions tend to focus on understanding what matters most to the client and on small steps that feel achievable.
People come to him for help with feelings of abandonment, attachment or relationship difficulties that affect day-to-day life. He also works with issues such as control problems, communication difficulties and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Men’s issues, fatherhood concerns and midlife questions are among the topics he regularly addresses.
He has experience supporting those dealing with guilt, shame and forgiveness, and with people facing substance use problems. Andrew helps clients think through next steps for their work and personal lives, including issues around career and purpose.
Andrew is based in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. He welcomes international clients and asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a first session. The approach is practical and conversational, aimed at helping people make steady progress one step at a time.
How client-centred work translates online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting and giving the person space to find their own answers. Online sessions using this approach still centre on what the client feels and thinks, and they help people work through anxiety, grief, relationship concerns and addiction-related issues by clarifying goals and exploring next steps.The counsellor will treat the choice of approach as a collaborative process. He will discuss what is helping and what is not, and then adapt ways of working to match the client’s goals and preferences. This makes it easier to try short experiments and skills between sessions and adjust the plan as needed.
The therapist’s biography does not list specific session formats. Please confirm the available formats before booking so you know what to expect. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits often help people sustain regular contact with a counsellor while juggling everyday commitments.
