Theodore Eleftheriou, ACA

Theodore Eleftheriou brings five years of clinical experience to his counselling work and believes behaviour usually has a reason. He holds three degrees focused on human behaviour, including one in psychology and two in counselling, and uses that background to help people understand how the past shapes present reactions. Theodore works in Australia and speaks English and Greek.

He prefers a person-centred style and adapts methods to what best helps each person. He has experience in relationship counselling and in supporting parents and caregivers through separation and divorce transitions. In those situations he focuses on improving communication, managing anger, and reducing stress.

Theodore has also worked with people who have experienced trauma and domestic violence, and with some who have caused harm, helping them understand the reasons behind their actions. He has personal and professional experience with grief and loss and brings that understanding into sessions.

His practice covers a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, addictions, ADHD, intimacy issues, sleep problems, chronic illness and pain, career strain, and coping with big life changes. Theodore often looks at attachment and abandonment issues when these underlie current difficulties.

In session, he aims to talk through past influences and present patterns so people can try different ways of behaving. He encourages collaboration, plain language, and practical steps that fit into everyday life.

How Theodore's approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on the ways early relationships shape how people relate now. It helps when worries about trust, abandonment or closeness affect current relationships. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience at the centre and relies on open listening and empathy to help someone find their own solutions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Theodore will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's goals, needs and preferences. That choice can change over time as issues evolve and progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by shortening commute time or allowing check-ins during a lunch break. It can also make sessions more practical when a quieter environment is needed or when scheduling around parenting and caregiving duties. Appropriately qualified therapists can adapt attachment and person-centred work to an online setting, using conversation and reflective exercises to address relationships, stress and coping.
