About Justin
Justin Andrews is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 14 years of counselling experience. He helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression and the everyday challenges that come with life changes. He also works with relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem and career stress.
Justin’s background includes long service in social care across mental health, learning disabilities and criminal justice. That wider work informs how he listens and responds to people facing complex issues. He blends practical techniques with reflective conversation to help people untangle what is happening for them.
He uses an array of approaches including client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural ideas, emotionally-focused work, mindfulness and solution-focused conversations. Sessions often combine talking with exercises to try between meetings. He also brings experience teaching counselling and leading meditation and mindfulness groups.
Justin has practised mindfulness for many years and continues personal study in Buddhism and meditation. That practice shapes how he helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without expecting instant change. He aims to be straightforward and steady in sessions, helping people consider small steps they can take.

How his approaches translate to online work
Justin uses client-centred practice and cognitive behavioural ideas in his online work. Client-centred practice means listening closely and following what matters most to the person. It helps when someone needs space to talk through guilt or shame without being steered too quickly. Cognitive behavioural techniques focus on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying small behaviour changes to test what helps in daily life.Finding the right approach is something he treats as a collaboration. He will talk with the person about their goals and preferences, then agree which ideas to try first. That may change over time as they see what fits and what feels manageable.
The original biography does not specify which online session formats are used. Please confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid being on camera if that helps. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, mindfulness practices and CBT-style tasks for remote sessions so people can practise between meetings.
