Andy Cottom

Andy Cottom is a psychotherapist working at Westminster Therapy Associates, the group practice he founded 12 years ago. Before training as a therapist, Andy had a long career in television news and documentary, often working in the most troubled areas of the world. He calculates that he has recorded some 20,000 interviews with people from all walks of life - heads of state and the public who elect them, celebrities and their fans, masters of industry and industrious workers. He uses this experience to guide his individual clients to better understand their feelings and thoughts and live a more fulfilled life. For the past two decades, Andy has campaigned for better mental health in society, volunteering at Victim Support and at the UK Council for Psychotherapy to advise the public on how they might take better care of their emotional wellbeing.
