Andrea Barton

Andrea Barton

Founder, Counsellor & Psychotherapist, PGDip, BA (Hons), MBACP

I feel passionate about offering meaningful transformative therapy to those who are struggling or in distress, and helping find a way forward to more fulfilling ways of living and relating.

I work particularly with the lasting impact of trauma, which means I have experience of working with a broad range of emotional and relational struggles including anxiety, depression, loss, identity and self-worth. I have over 14 years’ experience across private practice, the NHS, and charitable services. My previous career in international marketing gives me insight into stress, burnout, and high-pressure professional environments.
