About Andrew Thomas
Andrew Thomas is an integrative counsellor based in the United Kingdom who has been practising since 2018 and brings five years of clinical experience to his work. He holds a Foundation Degree in Integrative Counselling (Fda Counselling), a vocational higher-education qualification in counselling, and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), following the BACP code of ethics.
He works with adults aged 18 and over and offers a trauma-informed, integrative approach that draws on several therapeutic models to meet each person’s needs. His clinical toolbox includes Attachment-Based and psychodynamic ideas such as inner child and attachment work, client-centered humanistic methods, cognitive behavioural techniques, and somatic-informed interventions. He also integrates concepts from interpersonal neurobiology - including the window of tolerance and Polyvagal Theory - to help clients understand nervous system responses and to support regulation.
Andrew's practice focuses on a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, bereavement and grief, trauma and abuse, work-related stress, addictions, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy-related issues, bipolar disorder, ADHD, compassion fatigue and career-related challenges. He also works with related areas such as abandonment and attachment issues, codependency, family of origin problems, caregiver stress, dissociation, and substance-related difficulties. While he supports people with relationship and intimacy-related matters, he does not provide couples relationship counselling.
Sessions emphasise exploration, psychoeducation about what is happening in the body and brain when the nervous system becomes dysregulated, and practical coping strategies and techniques to restore a sense of balance and regulation. Andrew is clear about professional boundaries: he does not provide court reports or formal diagnostic assessments. He aims to offer flexible scheduling within his working hours of Monday to Friday and typically checks and replies to messages during weekdays, usually within 24 hours; messages received over the weekend are replied to on Monday mornings.
Please note that Andrew Thomas is not currently accepting new clients and does not work with international clients.

Could Remote Therapy Be the Right Choice?
Many people ask whether remote therapy can make a meaningful difference. For a range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes - online therapy can be an effective option comparable to traditional in-person work.One major benefit is flexibility. Individuals can connect with a therapist in the way that best fits their needs and routine, choosing video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility can make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to fit conversations about wellbeing into a busy life.
Licensed professionals deliver care via these remote formats, and people may switch therapists if they feel a different fit would better support their goals. For many, remote therapy offers an accessible, practical way to engage with therapeutic support while drawing on established clinical approaches.
