About Andrea
Andrea Sprio is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS in the United Kingdom with ten years of experience. She works with adults on relationship concerns, parenting and family tensions, and issues such as anxiety, depression and trauma. Andrea also addresses topics like intimacy, addictions, eating and sleeping problems, and challenges that come with blended family life.
Her approach is straightforward and conversational. Sessions focus on what matters in everyday life. She listens to how problems show up at home and helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck. Practical steps and clearer communication are often part of the work.
Andrea draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current responses. She uses client-centred methods to follow the person’s pace and priorities. Narrative techniques help people separate themselves from problems and rewrite stressful stories about family roles.
People who come to her often want to improve co-parenting, manage loyalty conflicts in stephouseholds, or adjust to new parenting roles. She will discuss which approach makes most sense and adapt as needs change. Sessions aim to be direct and useful, with simple tools to try between meetings.
If someone needs to start, they complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Andrea works in English and does not accept international clients.
How Andrea’s approaches are used in online work
Andrea uses attachment-based ideas to explore how early relationship patterns affect current reactions. This can help with anxiety, trust issues and the way people respond in parenting and intimate situations. She also follows a client-centred way of working, which means sessions move at the person’s pace and focus on what they identify as most important.Narrative techniques are used to separate the person from the problem and to rewrite unhelpful stories about roles in a family. That can be useful when reorganising routines or negotiating new parenting responsibilities in a blended household. These approaches are practical and aimed at clarifying what to try differently at home.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss options and agree on a plan together, adjusting methods as goals or circumstances change. The client’s needs and preferences help shape how sessions proceed.
