Hello, my name is Andy, Im a counsellor & psychotherapist based in Finnieston, Glasgow and a Registered Member of BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy). I work with clients (aged 16+) in-person and online. Working online means I'm able to help people across the UK & worldwide.
About me and my practice
I believe the true mechanism of change is through the relationship & although I've extensive theoretical knowledge to assist me in the therapeutic process, it is the connection to my clients which I find is most vital.
At the end of the day we're 2 humans sitting together (online/in-person), with one sharing their thoughts, feelings & emotions. You need to do that within a comfortable trusting therapeutic relationship which I aim to provide.
Change can take time but I dont demand any long-term commitment from clients because theres no recipe for living that fits all.
We're all unique as humans and everyones life journey is different. But at some point however, you will hopefully walk out the door a different person, closer to the version you want, and are meant, to be.
Feel free to get in touch and for more information on me & my practice, please visit my website - www.andywestoncounselling.co.uk
