About Andrew
Counsellor (BACP), 11 years' experience. Andrew Westcott focuses on bereavement, loss and related concerns using a person-centred approach. He works with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief and low mood among other challenges. Sessions are conducted in English and he practises in the United Kingdom.
Andrew uses person-centred counselling, which puts the client’s perspectives and pace at the centre of sessions. He lets people set the agenda and supports them as they talk through what matters. He does not lead with direct questioning but offers reflections and presence to help people explore their feelings.
His background emphasises work with bereavement and loss, so many clients come to him for help processing mourning and significant endings. He also addresses issues connected to attachment, abandonment, family problems and fatherhood concerns when they relate to a person's own experiences.
Over 11 years Andrew has helped people who face anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue and life changes that feel overwhelming. He supports those dealing with complex themes such as dissociation, domestic violence, guilt and shame, and infidelity by providing steady, client-led sessions.
Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time and pricing varies by location. Andrew does not take international clients. To begin, a person selects the See online therapy options button, completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session.
Sheet 2
Person-centred work and online sessions
Person-centred therapy focuses on listening, reflection and letting the client lead. The counsellor offers understanding and acceptance while the person talks through feelings and experiences. This approach is often used for grief, loss, low mood and stress because it allows difficult material to come up at a natural pace.Where attachment or relationship themes appear, the counsellor uses the same client-led stance to help clarify patterns and feelings. That means sessions are guided by what the client wishes to explore, and the counsellor helps name emotions and choices rather than directing solutions. This method can suit people who need time to find words for painful experiences.
Finding the right method is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss what feels most useful and adapt the way of working based on the client’s needs, goals and preferences. It is a collaborative process and adjustments are made together as therapy progresses.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Practical benefits of remote sessions can include fitting appointments around work, speaking without travel, and shorter check-ins when time is limited. These practical features help integrate counselling into everyday life without promising a particular service format.
