Andrew A Marr

“Part of our strategy to support employees with their mental health has been to provide them access to external sessions of counselling or CBT. Andy first started working with us on this service in 2019 and continues to provide his services today.
We have referred people of all levels to him. His approach consistently leads to good outcomes, even in the most complex of cases, and we typically receive highly positive and complimentary appraisals from the staff he sees.”

I studied engineering at university, worked for over 30 years in aviation, latterly in management. I started working closely with people as a volunteer counsellor around 15 years ago. I realised what I most enjoyed was helping people get over problems and improve the quality of their lives.
I took time out to retrain as a psychotherapist and set up in private practice in 2020. I trained in hypnotherapy when people reacted so well to my short guided meditations (for relaxation and sleep) and told me they liked my voice. Hypnotherapy can add something extra to a session. I offer it as an option.
I have knowledge and experience of many different approaches nowadays and we’ll decide on the best way forward together. That is as all counselling or therapy should be…a joint effort towards true and lasting positive change, with someone you can trust.
