About Konstantinos

Konstantinos Stavropoulos is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 15 years of experience. He works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, anger, and coping with life changes. He speaks English and Greek and accepts international clients.

Konstantinos focuses on straightforward conversation and practical planning. He listens to what a person is facing and helps break problems into manageable steps. Sessions cover everyday pressures - work, study, relationships, identity, and the strain of big transitions.

He uses methods drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral ideas, dialectical behavior techniques, and emotionally-focused approaches. That means sessions can include examining thoughts and behaviors, learning coping skills, and working on emotional responses in relationships. He also draws on existential ideas when people want to talk about meaning and direction.

Konstantinos aims to adapt the pace and content to each person. Typical conversations include setting short-term goals, practicing skills between sessions, and checking what is or isn't helping. He emphasizes clear steps more than abstract theory.

Many people come for help with career stress, self-esteem, relationship friction, grief, or ADHD-related struggles. Others seek support for mood conditions such as bipolar disorder or long-standing trauma. He describes therapy as a collaborative process where goals are agreed and progress is reviewed regularly.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a working relationship. Online sessions using this approach let people talk through what matters and set goals together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood. Online CBT commonly involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new behaviors between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be practiced in weekly online sessions and as homework.

Finding the right approach is part of the early work. The therapist will discuss preferences, goals, and practical needs and then agree on which methods to try. That collaboration means the plan can be adjusted over time if something isn’t helping.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking to know what is offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports carrying skill practice into daily life between meetings. If you want to book, follow the platform steps to complete the matching questionnaire and schedule your first session.
