Akvile Constantinou , BACP, NCPS

Akvile Constantinou is an integrative therapist based in the United Kingdom who brings a compassionate, culturally sensitive approach to supporting people through difficult life moments. She trained to a high academic standard, earning a First Class BSc Hons in Counselling, and maintains professional membership credentials of BACP and NCPS which reflect her commitment to recognized counselling standards and ongoing professional development. She is fully insured and DBS checked, and has provided therapy since 2019.

Akvile has worked with clients from diverse backgrounds on issues such as work-related stress, identity concerns, childhood trauma, sexual abuse, depression, anxiety, domestic violence, social isolation and suicidal thoughts. She has also been involved in developing mental health projects for vulnerable and marginalised communities, bringing both clinical work and community-focused experience to her practice.

Her style prioritises a collaborative therapeutic relationship built on trust, open dialogue and non-judgmental listening. She adopts a pluralistic method - drawing on different therapeutic approaches to tailor sessions to each person - and encourages active participation so that the client remains central to treatment decisions. Through guided self-reflection and exploration, Akvile supports clients in increasing self-awareness, recognising personal values and goals, and addressing unhelpful patterns that can keep them stuck.

She offers therapy in English and Lithuanian and accepts both local and international clients who are seeking a thoughtful, individualized path toward change.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Akvile commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy in her work. ACT invites clients to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without judgment and to commit to actions that align with their values - it can be helpful for anxiety, stress and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships influence current emotional patterns and interpersonal difficulties, supporting clients to understand and reshape relational responses that cause distress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Akvile works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals and preferences, adapting techniques as progress unfolds so therapy stays relevant and practical.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, travel or living in different locations. These formats allow licensed professionals and therapists to maintain continuity of care, make sessions easier to attend, and offer multiple ways for clients to communicate in the style that suits them best.
