About Aristogeiton
Aristogeiton "Ari" Sotiriou offers straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood, difficult relationships or big life changes. He helps clients notice patterns that keep causing pain and works with them to find clearer ways of relating to themselves and others. Ari speaks English, French and Greek and practises from the United Kingdom.
He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Ari draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences shape present feelings.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding recurring behaviours and the emotions behind them. That understanding then guides small, practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. His work often involves talking through relationship problems, grief, addiction concerns, self-esteem struggles, parenting stress and issues around intimacy.
He also supports people dealing with separation, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, cancer-related issues and aging questions. Clients can expect calm, attentive sessions that allow them to explore difficult memories and present reactions. The therapist keeps language clear and avoids jargon so people can take what they learn straight into daily life.
With 11 years' experience in practice, Ari uses a reflective approach that balances discussion of feelings with direct help for coping and decision-making. He aims to build steady progress over time rather than quick fixes. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.
Sessions are offered online using a range of formats to fit different needs.

Psychodynamic insight and online therapy options
Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on how early relationships and past events shape present feelings and reactions. It helps people spot repetitive patterns, understand hidden emotions and make different choices in relationships and life decisions. Ari uses this approach to help clients unpack why they react the way they do and to turn that understanding into practical change. Together the therapist and client look at goals and decide which aspects of the work to focus on, treating the choice of approach as a collaborative decision. Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls work well when visual connection helps the conversation. Phone sessions suit people who prefer not to be on camera or have limited bandwidth. Live chat and messaging allow brief check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support or writing-focused reflection without needing a scheduled call. These formats add flexibility for people juggling work, care or health needs, and they make it easier to keep therapy consistent. Ari helps clients choose the format that fits their routines and the pace of the work, adjusting as needs change.Frequently asked
