Constantino Costi, BACP

Constantino Costi is a counsellor who helps people when life feels overwhelming. He offers a warm, non-judgemental space where clients can speak openly about stress, anxiety, grief, relationship concerns, sexual and intimacy-related issues, addiction, and other difficulties. He works to make conversations simple and clear so people feel heard and understood from the first session.

He brings eight years of private-practice experience and a BACP credential, and draws on a humanistic integrative background. That means the relationship between client and counsellor is central, and sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of him. Sessions move at the client’s pace while exploring thoughts, feelings and behaviours.

Constantino often uses mindfulness and coaching tools alongside recognised methods such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas. He says therapy can look at past patterns, work with the here and now, and set practical steps toward change. This practical focus aims to help people notice familiar habits and try new ways of responding.

He has experience supporting people facing bereavement, trauma, addiction, depression, self-esteem struggles, identity questions, and anger. He also has familiarity with helping people who live with chronic illness, neurodiversity, caregiving stress and issues linked to adoption or abandonment.

Sessions are offered in English and Constantino accepts international clients. He aims to make therapy approachable for those who have never tried counselling before as well as for people with prior experience.

How his approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values, which can help with anxiety, stress and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviours and uses practical exercises to change patterns that maintain problems like low mood or worry. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions, and can be useful for relationship or intimacy-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Constantino will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to use, based on their needs, goals and preferences. That means trying things out and adjusting the focus if needed so sessions feel relevant and useful.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. It can also let people choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera when they prefer. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt tools and exercises used in face-to-face work to an online setting, keeping the same practical aims and therapeutic focus.
