About Andrew

Andrew Medlow is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. He focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, self-esteem and addictions. He also lists work with grief, trauma and a range of family and attachment issues.

Andrew describes clients as the experts in their own lives and aims to build on existing strengths. Sessions tend to be conversational and practical, with attention to what feels most useful for day-to-day coping. He frames progress as a series of small, manageable steps rather than a single event.

His practice draws on a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. Those methods are used to address mood, relationships and patterns that cause distress. Techniques may include noticing thoughts and feelings, clarifying values, and practising new ways of relating.

Andrew lists a range of specific concerns he works with, from ADHD and compassion fatigue to abandonment, commitment and communication problems. He also notes experience with addiction-related issues and fatherhood concerns. The emphasis is on helping people manage current problems and make practical changes.

To begin, people are asked to use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. Session fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How his approaches are used in online sessions

Andrew commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in sessions. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings, clarifying what matters to you, and taking small actions that align with those values; it can help with anxiety, low mood and motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current reactions; it can be useful for relationship strain, separation issues and attachment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss different methods together and decide which fits your goals and preferences. This remains a collaborative process where techniques are adjusted as needs change.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt exercises and conversation to suit remote meetings so practical skills and relational understanding can be developed without changing daily routines.
