Background and approach

He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, combined with ideas from body-centered and internal parts perspectives, to tailor sessions to each person. The work can include noticing thoughts, changing unhelpful habits, and learning ways to respond differently in tense moments.
The overall aim is clearer thinking and fewer urgent reactions. Andrew has helped people address impulsivity, anger, substance use, panic, and challenges connected to identity and self-worth. He also supports clients dealing with parenting stress, fatherhood concerns, and career pressures.
He emphasizes honest conversation, realistic goals, and steady progress over time. Sessions are conducted in a direct, compassionate style. Andrew partners with people who want practical tools and a plan they can try between sessions.
He helps clients track small wins and adjust strategies as needed to make everyday life more manageable.
How CBT and online sessions work together
Andrew commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and practice different responses. CBT is useful for anxiety, panic, mood problems, and patterns like impulsivity and substance use because it focuses on concrete skills and small behavior changes.He also brings in body-centered ideas and internal parts perspectives to notice how stress shows up physically and how different inner parts react. These approaches help when emotions feel overwhelming or when old patterns are triggered by relationships or past wounds.
Picking the right approach happens together. He will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust over time. That collaborative process helps find what is most useful for day-to-day life.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face work and skills practice, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is low, live chat is useful for short check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, and other busy schedules while keeping progress continuous.
