About me
I'm Dr Andre Etchebarne, a Chartered Counselling Psychologist and HCPC-registered Practitioner Psychologist. My clinical focus is on the psychological impact of chronic pain, injury, and long-term illness, an area I've worked in extensively across the NHS.
I draw on evidence-based approaches to help clients move out of survival mode and back toward a life that feels like their own, processing what's been lost and rebuilding a genuine sense of control.
Alongside my clinical work, I'm Placement Director and Lecturer in Counselling Psychology at the University of Manchester, and a member of the BPS Training Committee for Counselling Psychology. I'm also on the BPS register of supervisors and offer clinical supervision to trainees and qualified practitioners.
