About Justin
Justin Andrews is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 14 years of counselling experience. He works with stress, anxiety and a wide range of life concerns including grief, depression, relationships and addictions. He also supports people facing issues with sleep, anger, self-esteem and ADHD.
Justin draws on long experience in social care settings and mental health work. He has worked with people affected by learning differences, criminal justice settings and young people. That background informs a practical, down-to-earth approach in sessions.
In meetings he uses a mix of approaches to match what a person needs. Conversations often begin with the immediate problem and move on to small experiments or different ways of thinking. He also uses mindfulness practices that he has taught in community settings, including prison work.
Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps. That might mean looking at thoughts and routines, practising short mindfulness exercises, or finding ways to repair and clarify important relationships. He aims to help people notice what works and build on it.
Justin teaches counselling and leads meditation work alongside his clinical practice. He continues his own practice of meditation and personal development, and brings that ongoing learning into sessions.

How his approaches work for online counselling
Justin often uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) in sessions. Client-centred work means the counsellor focuses on the person speaking and follows their concerns, helping them find their own solutions. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviours and asks what small changes might reduce distress or improve daily routines.He also draws on mindfulness techniques to teach short practices for calming the body and improving focus. Mindfulness can be helpful for stress, sleep problems and anxiety by offering simple breathing and attention exercises to use between sessions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the counselling process. The counsellor works collaboratively to choose what feels most useful based on the person’s goals, practical needs and preferences. That choice can be revised as work progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins when a full in-person visit is not possible. It can also suit people who prefer learning and practising mindfulness or CBT tools with guidance from a therapist.
