"Jimi" Dimitrios Katsis, BACP

Jimi Dimitrios Katsis brings a client-centred approach to therapy. He aims to create a calm, honest space where people can stop performing and start talking about what’s really going on. He writes in a direct, approachable way and understands how hard it can be to ask for help.

He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside other approaches. Sessions focus on understanding the story a person brings, spotting unhelpful patterns and finding practical ways to live with more meaning and ease. Work is often steady and practical rather than rushed.

Jimi has 25 years of experience and holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That experience covers a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addiction, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress and career difficulties. He also supports people with ADHD and bipolar mood challenges.

He pays attention to difficult life events such as loss, separation, adoption and abandonment experiences. He also works with people facing control and codependency issues, dissociation, and the emotional fallout from domestic violence. His approach combines compassion with gentle challenge.

People who choose him can expect a straightforward conversation to begin. He often starts with an informal chat to see how you feel together and whether the way he works fits your needs. If it does, sessions move on to practical steps and reflective work tailored to your goals.

Online therapy approaches that focus on living well

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages clearer values and small committed actions. It helps when someone feels stuck, overwhelmed by thoughts, or unsure which direction to take in life.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It offers straightforward techniques to reduce anxiety, lift mood and change habits that cause distress.

He sees choosing an approach as a shared task. The therapist will discuss what feels most useful, try things out and adjust based on your goals and preferences. This makes it easier to find a way of working that fits how you like to think and act.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to use video, or who need flexibility around work or family commitments. Registered or accredited professionals can help you decide how to pace sessions so they slot into day-to-day life without overwhelming you.
