About Andrea
Andrea Kyrri-Royle is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with ten years' experience. She works in the United Kingdom and helps people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression, among other concerns.
She takes a person-centred approach that looks at the whole individual. Sessions begin by identifying what the client hopes to change. The focus is on current aims and practical steps as well as understanding how past experiences shape coping habits.
Andrea draws on a mix of approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy, to respond to each person's needs. That means she may use talking, reflection and practical exercises to notice patterns and try different ways of responding to them.
She also uses narrative and existential ideas to look at life themes and the stories people tell about themselves. These methods can help when someone deals with grief, relationship difficulties, major life changes or questions about meaning.
Sessions are offered in English and Greek. Andrea works with a wide range of issues from parenting strain and career stress to more complex problems such as bipolar, ADHD and chronic illness. Practical steps and steady exploration form the core of her way of working.
How Andrea uses different approaches in online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience in the moment. It involves listening without judgement and helping people clarify what matters to them. This approach is useful for stress, low self-esteem and when someone needs to work through confusing feelings.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises and short experiments to try different ways of thinking and acting. CBT can help with anxiety, depression and unhelpful coping patterns.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) works with emotions in relationships and how people respond to strong feelings. It is often used when people want help with intimacy issues, grief or painful relationship patterns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Andrea will discuss goals and preferences and agree a plan together. That means the method used can change as needs evolve, and the client helps shape the way sessions proceed.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online counselling can make it easier to fit a session into a working day, reduce travel time, or allow a shorter check-in when time is limited. Talk with Andrea about what will fit your routine and practical needs.
