Andrea Weston – Person-Centred Counsellor
Anxiety, Trauma and Difficult Life Experiences
I’m a qualified Person-Centred Counsellor with additional training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), supporting adults experiencing a wide range of emotional and personal difficulties.
My experience includes working with people affected by anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, stress, anger, relationship difficulties, self-harm and suicidal thoughts.
My approach is primarily person-centred, which means our sessions are shaped around you and what you feel ready to explore. I aim to provide a supportive, empathetic and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly and work at a pace that feels appropriate for you.
Alongside Person-Centred counselling, I can also draw on CBT where appropriate. This may involve exploring patterns in thoughts, feelings and behaviours and considering whether different ways of responding could be useful to you.
I don’t believe there is one approach that suits everybody. We can work with what you bring to each session, whether that involves understanding difficult experiences, exploring how something is affecting you in the present or simply having somewhere to talk without judgement.
Counselling is personal, and you remain in control of what we discuss and how quickly we move. My role is to listen, support you and work alongside you as you explore what feels important.
Qualifications
- Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Counselling

Frequently Asked Question
Yes. Your sessions are treated as confidential and our coaches and counsellors are expected to follow appropriate professional confidentiality standards.
There may be limited circumstances where information needs to be shared, such as where there is a serious concern about safety or where disclosure is required by law. Your provider can explain their confidentiality arrangements at the start of your work together.
That’s completely okay. The relationship you have with your coach or counsellor matters, and sometimes the first person you speak to won’t feel like the right fit.
If that happens, let us know and we’ll help you explore another provider.

We keep pricing simple and transparent.
Every session will be different depending on whether you choose coaching or counselling and the provider you work with.
You can expect a confidential, non-judgemental space where you have time to talk openly about what is going on for you. A coach may focus more on goals, change and practical next steps, while counselling may give you space to explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences in greater depth.
Your provider will work at a pace that feels appropriate for you.
Sessions usually last 50–60 minutes and can be:
- Phone
- Video call
- Face-to-face (where available)
Coaching is generally more focused on where you are now, where you would like to get to and the changes you want to make. Counselling provides space to explore emotions, experiences and difficulties in greater depth.
There is no fixed script. Your sessions should develop around what you need and what you feel comfortable discussing.
