About Me

A person-centred, integrative approach

BACP Registered DBS Checked 10+ Years’ Experience LGBTQ+ Affirming

I offer counselling and psychotherapy in Newcastle upon Tyne, with in-person sessions in Gosforth and online appointments for clients across Tyneside and beyond. I am Errikos Kotzakioulafis, a qualified therapist with over 10 years of experience supporting adults of all ages.

My approach is person-centred at its core, drawing from psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to tailor our work to your individual needs.

I offer a calm, confidential space where you can speak openly about anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, life transitions, ADHD or OCD, and begin to move towards greater clarity and resilience.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens in the first session?

The first session is an opportunity for us to meet and begin understanding what brings you to therapy. We’ll discuss what you’re hoping to explore and how we might work together. There’s no pressure—we move at your pace.

How long does each session last?

Sessions typically last 50 minutes and take place weekly at a consistent time. This regularity helps create a sense of safety and continuity between our meetings.

Is everything I say confidential?

Yes, confidentiality is fundamental to our work together. What you share in sessions stays between us, with very limited legal exceptions which I’ll explain clearly at the outset.

Do I need a referral from my GP?

No, you don’t need a referral to see a private therapist. You can contact me directly to arrange an initial consultation.
