About Akvile
Akvile Constantinou is a counsellor who helps people facing anxiety, stress and life changes. She works with adults who are trying to make sense of difficult feelings. Her style is direct and warm, aimed at making the next step feel more manageable.
Akvile uses a mix of approaches to suit the person in front of her rather than one fixed method. Sessions are practical and conversational, with time for reflection and some tasks to try between meetings.
Background and approach
She draws on techniques that help change unhelpful thoughts and build clarity about values and goals. She trained to a First Class BSc (Hons) in Counselling and has practised since 2019. Her background includes work with people from a range of cultural backgrounds and involvement in mental health projects for marginalised communities.
She holds BACP and NCPS credentials. In therapy she focuses on building trust and a collaborative relationship. Conversations are non-judgemental and geared towards understanding patterns that keep someone stuck.
Clients are invited to notice thoughts and feelings, then choose small actions aligned with what matters to them. Sessions can address anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship and parenting concerns, as well as work stress and career questions. Akvile also supports people dealing with body image, attachment or identity issues and the fallout from separation or loss.
How approaches translate to online therapy
Akvile uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT is practical and task-focused, often including short exercises to try between sessions which can be adapted for online formats.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which helps people clarify values and take committed action even when anxiety or difficult feelings are present. ACT encourages small, value-led steps and can pair well with simple mindfulness exercises in video or text work.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Akvile will discuss goals and preferences and together they will decide which methods feel most useful. This collaborative planning lets the therapist adjust the mix of techniques as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexible options. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging suits brief check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments, while keeping the focus on practical steps and steady progress.
