Dr Kostas Kouriatis
I am a Counselling Psychologist who is an Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society (AFBPsS) and is registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP). I am also an EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner (EMDR Association UK).
Experience
I currently work in private practice. My clinical experience is diverse, as I have worked in a Community Mental Health Team, a Specialist Psychotherapy Department, a Community Health Psychology Service and a University Counselling Centre. Within the clinical settings I have worked, I have offered integrative, EMDR, cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), person-centred, psychodynamic, and family-systemic therapy within different session frameworks (short-term and long-term). I have provided my services to people with a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties, as well as to individuals who have wanted to engage in therapy to promote their personal development.
I have also worked as a University Lecturer for the University of East London and Visiting Lecturer for the City University of London.
