Ms Mariella Aristidou

Psychotherapist

“Fully qualified,experienced Adult,Child & Adolescent Counsellor. Registered member of the British Association Counsellors & Psychotherapists”

About Me

I offer integrative psychotherapy, supporting adults, children, and adolescents through life's challenges. My integrative approach flexibly draws from various models. This allows me to tailor sessions precisely to your unique needs. I help you explore feelings and develop new coping strategies. If you seek a personalised and experienced counsellor, I provide a supportive space. My practice is ideal for individuals or families looking to grow and find clarity.

Approach

Fully qualified and experienced, I shape sessions around how you prefer to reflect and heal. I offer English-language therapy in London and online, keeping pace sensitive to age and family rhythms so work feels manageable. Sessions combine careful listening, practical skill-building and creative, developmentally appropriate tasks; between meetings I often suggest small steps and brief check-ins to consolidate progress. Many people find this collaborative, steady approach helps them navigate change and build clearer, more workable ways forward.
