Hello there and thank you for looking at my profile.
My name is Andrew Reay.
I offer a holistic approach and range of therapies to facilitate growth and help achieve the changes my clients are seeking.
I firmly believe that my clients have the power to shift their thinking. I use a blend of Psychotherapy, Clinical Hypnotherapy and Counselling techniques in addition to Brainspotting (BSP), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Ego State Therapy and other techniques in my work with clients.
My diverse range of life experience, positive attitude and capacity to embrace others with respect and empathy allows me to assist many clients to achieve their goals in a confidential, practical way.
I am a registered and accredited Supervisor for Counsellors with the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) and Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation Australia (PACFA) also an accredited Supervisor for Clinical Hypnotherapists with the Australian Hypnotherapist’ Association (AHA), the Australian Society of Clinical Hypnotherapists (ASCH) and the Australian Association of Clinical Hypnotherapy & Psychotherapy (AACHP).
My clients tell me that I am an approachable friendly and competent therapist with a range of effective therapeutic interventions.
I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, motivation, depression, self esteem, and confidence challenges.
I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our sessions to meet your unique individual and specific needs.
Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
