About

About Andrew Webb

I am a Accredited member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy ( BACP)

I have been a Person Centred Counsellor & Supervisor for 22 years and 17 years respectively, having previously worked in the public sector. I decided I was more interested in people rather than ‘things’! I have my own private practice.

I have both private clients and work for several national counselling agencies (EAPs) who contract with companies and refer employees to me with a wide variety of presenting issues. I work with individuals both long term and short term and also with Couples.I am also trained in working with trauma.

I believe strongly that the Person Centred model, built firmly on the personal relationship, in which I offer the Core Conditions of Empathy, Unconditional Acceptance and Transparency enables a person to access their feelings, find their own solutions and develop their potential. I do not diagnose or label a person with a particular issue and then ' treat' them accordingly. I prefer to see them as a unique individual with their own needs and trusting in their own process. It is essentially non directive as I trust the person’s ability to know what is best for themselves. I will use some cognitive based strategies as part of therapy when appropriate but always in negotiation with the client.
