Andrew Boorman , BACP

Andrew Boorman is a UK-based therapist with formal training in psychology and counselling and five years of professional experience. He holds a BSc in Psychology and an MSc in Counselling, and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) - a recognised professional organisation in the United Kingdom. Over his career he has supported people facing stress, anxiety and panic, as well as low mood, LGBTQ+ related concerns, career difficulties and a range of life transitions.

Andrew aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored and understood. He works collaboratively with people to help them clarify what matters, develop coping strategies and build resilience as they navigate change. Taking the first step to seek support often takes courage, and Andrew acknowledges and respects that decision as part of the therapeutic journey.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support with Andrew

Andrew draws on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to guide his online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathic space where the person’s own goals and values lead the process - it is helpful for building self-understanding, addressing relationship concerns and navigating life changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) concentrates on identifying patterns of thinking and behaviour that contribute to distress and developing practical strategies to change them - it is often effective for anxiety, low mood and stress-related difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Andrew collaborates with each person to explore their needs, goals and preferences, and he adapts his methods so they fit the individual rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model. That collaborative stance helps clients feel more engaged and supported.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and life commitments. These options increase accessibility for people who live at a distance or who need different communication styles, while still allowing therapists and clients to work together toward meaningful change.
