About Andrea

Andrea Kelliher offers a relationship-focused, integrative counselling approach. She uses ideas from attachment work, psychodynamic thinking and cognitive behavioural techniques to help people make sense of their feelings and actions. Andrea is identified by her warm, honest manner and a practical focus on goals and personal strengths.

She has three years' experience and a BACP accreditation, and she practises from the United Kingdom. Andrea previously worked in NHS talking therapies and in independent practice, so she has experience with a range of common problems.

Background and approach

Her work has included supporting people facing anxiety, depression, grief and relationship challenges. Sessions begin by clarifying what the person wants to change. Andrea helps people set clear, manageable goals and notices the patterns that keep problems going.

She pays attention to how early attachments and life events shape current relationships and self-image. Practical work is mixed with exploration of deeper feelings. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used alongside reflective conversation to build skills for everyday life.

Andrea aims to help people practise new ways of coping between sessions. She also addresses issues such as anger, self-esteem, body image, money worries, isolation and questions about life purpose. The focus can include abandonment and attachment difficulties, communication and control problems, and recovery after separation.

Andrea supports men with specific concerns and helps people work through guilt, shame and forgiveness. People who choose to work with Andrea can expect a straightforward, respectful approach. She helps identify internal resources and small steps forward, while keeping sight of longer term changes.

Online support

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how they relate to others and to themselves, which is useful for anxiety, abandonment and relationship difficulties.

Client-Centred Therapy centres the person's own experience. The therapist listens without judgement and helps clients find their own solutions, which can support self-esteem, life purpose and processing shame.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for stress, panic, low mood and impulsivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Andrea will work collaboratively to pick methods that match the person's needs, goals and preferences, and she adjusts the mix over time as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls suit deeper conversation and visual connection, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can fit shorter check-ins or busy schedules. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, family or travel commitments while keeping a steady course of support.
