About Andrew
Andrew Ellis MA offers straightforward support for men feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or life changes. He introduces a calm, steady presence and helps people work out practical next steps. Conversations are kept simple and focused to make talking easier when things feel heavy.
He listens without rushing and helps people name what matters to them. Sessions can cover worries such as low self-esteem, anger, addictions, grief, relationship difficulties and problems with sleep. He also supports people facing issues connected to parenting, work, identity and major life transitions.
Andrew uses a mixture of approaches suited to the person in front of him. He draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values, cognitive techniques to spot unhelpful thinking, and mindfulness to build day-to-day coping skills. The work is described plainly, with practical exercises people can try between meetings.
With eight years' experience and BACP registration, he aims to offer steady guidance rather than quick fixes. He encourages people to set realistic goals and to take small steps that feel doable.
To begin, he invites a short conversation to see if working together feels right. That first step is used to agree practical goals, how to work towards them, and what a helpful pace will be.
How Andrew’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what they care about and take small steps toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It can be useful for stress, anxiety and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and testing practical changes to behaviour, which can reduce anxiety and improve sleep and mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and agree a plan that suits the person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where methods can be adjusted as needs become clearer.
Please confirm the available session formats before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and remove travel time so appointments can be scheduled around work or family commitments. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find that combining practical exercises with reflection during sessions helps people apply new skills between meetings.
