How Andrew works
A relationship built on respect and clear boundaries
Your needs, values and pace guide the work. You will not be pushed to share before you are ready.
Sessions can help you recognise emotions, needs and relationship patterns with greater clarity.
Reflection is supported by realistic strategies drawn from counselling and mindfulness-informed approaches.
