Akvile Constantinou, BACP, NCPS

Akvile Constantinou is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, relationship worry, low self-esteem, grief and a wide range of other life difficulties. She uses clear, down-to-earth language and aims to make sessions feel like a practical space to think things through. Akvile meets people where they are and focuses on small, achievable steps that fit into everyday life.

Her approach draws on five years of clinical work across diverse communities in the United Kingdom. She works pluralistically, combining methods so sessions match each person’s needs. This means a conversation might include noticing thoughts and feelings, exploring personal values, and trying out practical ideas to change unhelpful patterns.

Clients can expect a calm, non-judgemental environment and a collaborative pace. Akvile encourages self-reflection to help people spot the beliefs and behaviours that block them. From there she supports practical goal-setting to test new ways of relating to problems such as anxiety, depression, trauma and family stress.

She lists Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Existential Therapy among the approaches she uses. Sessions may explore attachment patterns, values-driven choices, thought restructuring, or simple mindfulness practices depending on the person’s priorities.

Akvile holds a First Class BSc (Hons) in Counselling and is registered with BACP and NCPS. She is able to work in English and Lithuanian and sees people across borders who choose to work internationally.

How Akvile works online with different approaches

Akvile commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy when working with people online. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting caught up in them, and then taking small actions that match your values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and getting stuck in unhelpful habits. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from early relationships that influence how someone connects now, and it can help with trust, abandonment worries and communication problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, and together they will try methods that feel most useful. Sessions are collaborative, so plans are adjusted based on what helps in day-to-day life.

Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around busy schedules, reduce travel time and allow for flexible check-ins that suit work, family or study commitments. It also lets people use quieter or lower-bandwidth setups if that works better for them.
