About Andrew
Andrew Henderson is a counsellor registered as NCPS with three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He helps people who are struggling with anger, stress, anxiety, grief, trauma and family conflict. He also works with concerns such as sleep problems, relationship and intimacy issues, addiction and low self esteem.
In sessions he keeps the conversation direct and practical. He aims to make it straightforward to talk about difficult feelings. People can expect time to describe what is happening, and then to plan small steps that feel manageable.
Andrew draws on client-centred ideas, which put a person’s own goals at the centre of each session. He also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to identify thoughts and patterns that fuel anger and stress. Existential ideas are used to talk about values, choice and meaning when life feels unsettled.
He has worked with a range of issues in the last three years, including ADHD, caregiving stress, chronic illness, blended family concerns and sexual lifestyle topics such as kink. He also supports people coping with career pressures and major life change.
Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Andrew aims to help people notice patterns, practise different responses, and build on what already works. To begin, people select the online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and book a first session.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions are used
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and the conversations they bring. It involves the therapist listening closely, reflecting what is said, and supporting clients to decide what matters most. This approach is useful for working through anger that is tied to relationships or values.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It helps people identify patterns that escalate anger and practise different responses. CBT is often used for stress, workplace frustration and sleep or anxiety problems.
Existential Therapy explores questions about meaning, choice and commitment. It can help when anger is connected to a sense of loss, identity or life changes and when someone wants to re-evaluate what matters to them.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss needs, goals and preferences and agree on methods together. Clients and the therapist decide which techniques to try and review how they are helping as therapy progresses.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit work or family life around appointments and can reduce travel time. They also allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed and make it simpler to continue work when circumstances change.
