Constantino Costi
Calm, practical therapy for life challenges
About Constantino
Constantino Costi helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure where to begin. He writes plainly, listens without judgement, and gives space for difficult feelings. Many come after a period of stress, loss or change and want a steady person to talk things through with.
He works at a gentle pace so people can name what matters most. Sessions focus on current concerns and on patterns that show up again and again.
Background and approach
He uses simple tools such as mindfulness, coaching techniques and talking therapies to help people notice their choices and take small steps forward. Constantino trained in humanistic integrative approaches and has practised in independent practice for eight years. He also has experience with a charity setting and short-term work using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which helped him support goal-focused plans.
His BACP membership is listed as a professional credential. People bring a wide range of problems including stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, low self-esteem, depression and trauma. He also works with issues around intimacy, eating and sleeping, parenting pressures, career decisions and neurodiversity-related concerns such as autism and ADHD.
Sessions aim to build a trusting working relationship and a clearer sense of what to try next. Constantino pays attention to how the past links to today while keeping the here and now central. He encourages practical experiments between sessions and reviews what helps most as therapy progresses.

How his approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. This can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical experiments to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for short-term, goal-focused work such as managing anxiety or low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and how they shape relationships and personal patterns, helping people understand and work with strong feelings.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what has helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and review progress as therapy continues.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video lets people see non-verbal cues and have longer conversations, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, chat is useful for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or other commitments while keeping focus on the therapeutic work.
