About Constantino
Constantino Costi offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people who feel overwhelmed or stuck. He invites straightforward conversation and listens with warmth so individuals can say what’s on their mind without feeling dismissed. This first contact is aimed at making it easier to take the next step when life feels heavy.
He works in a humanistic integrative way that puts the relationship at the centre of therapy. Sessions move at the client’s pace and look at what is happening now as well as useful links to the past. Mindfulness and coaching techniques are used where helpful to notice patterns and try new ways of responding.
Costi has spent eight years in private practice and has also worked with a wellbeing charity, gaining experience with short-term work and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. That background informs a flexible approach that can suit people new to counselling or those who have tried therapy before.
People come to him with many concerns, including anxiety, stress, addiction, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, low self-esteem, ADHD and codependency. He aims to create practical steps alongside understanding, so clients can see gradual change in day-to-day life.
Sessions are described as warm, respectful and trustworthy. Costi emphasises organisation and follow-through so conversations lead to concrete goals. He encourages clients to explore the past, work on the here and now, and plan for the future.
How his approaches translate to online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and choosing actions that match personal values. It is often used for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and helps people recognise and change repeating patterns in relationships. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and tries practical experiments to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then agree a plan. This collaborative stance means methods can be adapted as the client learns what helps them most.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the exact session formats before booking as the profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow sessions from different locations. Some approaches translate well to video or phone since they use structured exercises, short skills work or conversational exploration, and the therapist will suggest practical ways to make sessions work in everyday life.
