Andrea Kyrri-Royle, BACP

Compassionate, body-aware counselling for change

AK Portrait of Andrea Kyrri-Royle

About Andrea

Andrea Kyrri-Royle is a counsellor with ten years of experience who draws on body-aware and talking therapies to help people find steadiness. She works from the view that people want to grow and make meaning, but life events can derail that. Andrea listens with empathy and helps clients set simple, achievable goals for their wellbeing.

She pays attention to how habits of coping form from past experiences. In sessions she explores typical patterns and the ways those patterns were useful once, but may now cause strain.

Background and approach

Andrea aims to make those patterns easier to recognise and shift, rather than labelling people by their difficulties. Her approach brings together somatic work with client-centred conversations and practical thinking tools. This mix can help when someone is dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, or life changes.

She also supports people facing issues such as addiction, grief, relationship problems, self-esteem and sleep difficulties. Andrea is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She practises in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English and Greek.

Sessions run by video, phone, live chat or text messaging depending on what the client prefers. People who meet her can expect a collaborative style that balances feeling and thinking. She will work with each person’s pace and preferences, helping them build practical steps to manage stress, cope with change and reconnect with what matters.

The emphasis is on small, steady progress rather than quick fixes.

How somatic and talking therapies work online

Andrea combines somatic-informed work with client-centred and cognitive behavioural approaches to support practical change. Somatic work focuses on bodily experience - noticing tension, breath and movement - to help people understand how stress and trauma show up in the body. This can be useful for managing anxiety, sleep problems and chronic stress.

Client-centred therapy centres the person’s own goals and experience. It involves open listening, reflection and helping people identify what matters to them. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, adds structured techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and try alternative actions, which can help with anxiety, depression and some patterns of behaviour.

Choosing the right combination is a shared process. The therapist will work with clients to decide which methods feel most helpful based on their needs, goals and preferences. That way the work stays practical and tailored rather than fixed to one model.

Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. These options let people connect from home or elsewhere, make scheduling easier and support gradual progress across weeks of work.
