About Corinna
Counsellor and BACP member Corinna Andrews has three years' experience working with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, trauma and grief. She also offers additional focus for people who are hearing impaired. Corinna uses person-centred ways of working alongside cognitive behavioural methods to help people talk through what is causing them distress and to try different ways of coping.
Corinna aims to work at a pace the client chooses. Sessions focus on listening, reflecting and looking at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. She names patterns together with the client and explores practical steps they might try between sessions.
Her background includes counselling work in a GP surgery and placement experience with the charity Mind. She has broader experience from roles in mental health and support work within local services. This experience informs how she responds to common difficulties such as anxiety, depression and reactions after abuse or loss.
Corinna completed a qualification in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which she uses alongside person-centred counselling. Person-centred therapy places the client's views at the centre of the conversation and CBT looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. She will explain how these approaches might be used in sessions and invite the client to choose what feels most helpful.
People who are deaf or hard of hearing are explicitly noted as a focus. Sessions are offered in English and arranged for the United Kingdom. Before booking, clients should confirm the current session formats available through the site.
How Corinna uses person-centred and CBT online
Corinna works from person-centred counselling and cognitive behavioural approaches. Person-centred counselling focuses on listening and reflecting what the client says so they can make sense of their own thoughts. It is useful when someone needs time to talk things through and be understood without direction. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT can help when patterns of thinking and behaviour keep anxiety or low mood going and the client wants practical ways to change those patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Corinna will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then suggest how person-centred or CBT methods might be used. This is a collaborative process and the client helps choose which way of working feels most helpful.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so clients should confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make fitting sessions into a busy week easier, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break. It can also help when quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth are needed, depending on the chosen format. Registered and accredited professionals, including counsellors and therapists, commonly offer a range of session types and will explain what works best for each person.
