He listens and can really understand the thoughts and feelings behind what you're saying, and can gently direct and suggest next steps to try in your own journey. The walks and talks are a great change of scenery and allow for some unique anecdotes! Very thankfully for our time Richard2023-03-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't thank Andy enough for the support and guidance he has given me since we started talking. He has been so patient and taught me a lot of skills that will help me and have helped me when I'm struggling with my mental health. The best thing is that Andy listens and he genuinely wants to help, that's all people need sometimes, but he goes above and beyond that to help you understand and be able to help yourself and then help others. Highly recommended, kind, supportive and encouraging. John2023-03-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Andrew is a quiet, sensitive man who knows just how to listen well & to prompt discerning questions. If you are a Christian, it is great to know he shares your faith. If you have different beliefs or none at all, you will not find him religious or in any way up front about his faith. In short he is a consummate professional. If you need counselling, you’ll find Andrew to be approachable, sensitive, discerning & perhaps most importantly, kind. I can recommend him personally, having spent around 9 months talking through grief, bereavement & abandonment issues. 5 star, no doubt about it.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
