Andrea Dobson


Counselling Psychologist

Andrea is an accomplished Counselling Psychologist and Coach with extensive experience across inpatient, outpatient, and occupational settings. She began her professional journey in Amsterdam after earning qualifications in Clinical Psychology. At a leading mental health hospital, Andrea completed her training as a Counselling Psychologist, where she refined her skills in tailoring therapeutic approaches to meet the diverse needs of her clients.

In addition to her strong foundation in Clinical and Counselling Psychology, Andrea excels in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT). She adeptly addresses a wide range of challenges, including low mood, anxiety, low self-esteem, and substance misuse. Andrea has a particular talent for assisting individuals whose mental health issues affect their personal relationships and workplace performance. Andrea is also a skilled researcher and has contributed to several projects focused on alleviating symptoms and preventing relapse. She integrates her research experience into her clinical practice, promoting lasting improvements in her clients’ well-being.

Andrea’s unique blend of expertise allows her to support clients facing challenges that impact their professional lives, including burnout, depression, imposter syndrome, assertiveness, and stress management. This skill set was developed during her time in a high-tech scale-up environment, where she initially coached managers and senior leaders and advanced to the role of Head of People in time. In this capacity, she enhanced the company’s learning culture by designing leadership programmes, expanding coaching initiatives, and providing mental health support on a global scale. Andrea’s extensive knowledge of mental health significantly contributed to the overall well-being of the organisation and its employees.

Utilising both CBT and coaching principles, Andrea employs a practical and evidence-based methodology to address a broad spectrum of emotional and psychological issues. Central to her approach is the therapeutic relationship; she diligently cultivates a non-judgmental and safe space for everyone she works with. Her ability to forge genuine and compassionate connections creates a supportive environment for her clients.
