Aristogeiton "Ari" Sotiriou offers a straightforward, calm approach for people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, low mood or repeating relationship problems. He introduces ways to recognise patterns and try small changes that add up over time. Ari speaks English, French and Greek and practises from the United Kingdom with eleven years of experience.

BACP denotes his professional registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Ari draws on psychodynamic therapy to help people understand how earlier experiences shape current feelings and reactions.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on the stories people tell about themselves and the habitual ways they cope. He uses gentle questioning and reflective listening to surface patterns that are often outside conscious awareness. Practical concerns such as parenting strain, grief, addictive behaviours, eating difficulties and problems with intimacy are addressed alongside deeper themes like abandonment, attachment and family of origin issues.

Conversations combine exploration of feeling with attention to daily coping strategies. Online and remote options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging, allowing work to continue around busy schedules and across borders. Ari encourages regular, consistent sessions as a way to build momentum and change.

People who choose him can expect a steady, curious approach that balances emotional understanding with practical steps. The aim is clearer self-knowledge and more workable ways of relating to others and to oneself.

Psychodynamic work online and what to expect

Psychodynamic therapy helps people recognise how past relationships and early experiences shape current feelings and reactions. Sessions often involve talking about recurring patterns, memories and emotions so these can be understood and tested in new ways. This approach can be useful for relationship problems, attachment issues, abandonment concerns and long-standing mood or self-esteem difficulties.

In online sessions the therapist treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. He will listen to your goals and preferences, discuss how psychodynamic work might help, and adapt the focus as you learn together. Deciding on pace, topics and practical steps happens jointly rather than being imposed.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging offers flexible ways to keep regular contact. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief updates, reflections between sessions or when not wanting to be on camera. These options make it simpler to maintain continuity of care across different locations and busy schedules.
