My Approach

As a UKCP-accredited psychodynamic psychotherapist with over 10 years of experience, I support adults and couples in uncovering the unconscious patterns that shape their emotional lives.

My practice specializes in online psychodynamic therapy for reflective, intellectually engaged individuals—including therapists, academics, and professionals. I offer a depth-oriented space to address anxiety, identity questions, and complex family dynamics.

In addition to my clinical work, I author the 'Clinical Reflections' blog, where I explore the 'Third' in therapy, relationship containment, and psychoanalytic theory. You can read these insights at blog.online-therapy-clinic.com.

I also provide online couples therapy, helping partners move beyond recurring conflict toward emotional reconnection. Sessions are conducted via secure video in English, French, or Greek.

Arranging an Initial Consultation

If you would like to explore working together, I offer a complimentary 15-minute introductory video call to discuss your needs and establish our clinical frame.

Please note: Individual therapy via live video is offered exclusively to UK referrals. Standard sessions start on the hour and last for 50 minutes. Fees are £100 per consultation for couples and £85 for individuals. For broader clinical needs, our clinic's psychiatrist, Dr Ruxandra Ion, provides specialized CBT.

About Me

Hello, I’m Ari Sotiriou. Based in London SE1 (Borough/London Bridge), I provide specialist online psychotherapy to clients across the UK and internationally.

Alongside my private practice, I work on digital therapy platforms — an experience that has sharpened my thinking about therapeutic fit, frame, and the clinical implications of how we deliver therapy online. I recently wrote about this: https://blog.online-therapy-clinic.com/2026/05/02/betterhelp-vs-private-therapy-generation-brain/

My work is grounded in British Psychoanalytic traditions, offering a thoughtful, non-judgmental environment for long-term psychological growth. I have a particular interest in supporting expats and international professionals navigating cultural dislocation or identity transitions.

Whether you are seeking individual depth-work or are part of a couple looking for clinical assessment, I meet my clients with warmth and rigorous clinical attention. I am trilingual and offer therapy in your most comfortable language—English, French, or Greek.

Clinical Resources & Interactive Tools

To support your reflection outside of sessions, I regularly publish interactive worksheets and essays on relational dynamics on my clinical blog. Before booking a consultation, you are welcome to explore these open-access digital resources on your phone or desktop:

Navigating Same-Sex Dynamics: Read my recent paper, "Sailing Without a Map", at blog.online-therapy-clinic.com/2026/05/08/sailing-without-a-map/

Interactive Communication Mapping: Work through my custom HTML5 tool, "The Adult Bridge Worksheet", where you can securely map out relational blockages and save your progress as a PDF at blog.online-therapy-clinic.com/worksheet-the-adult-bridge/
