Apostolos Fournaris

Apostolos Fournaris offers help to people struggling with anger, anxiety, depression and related concerns. He welcomes adults, children and adolescents who want a calm, non-judgemental space to talk. His style suits someone who wants to understand patterns that repeat in their life and relationships. Apostolos uses a psychodynamic way of working. He believes behaviours and feelings often come from parts of ourselves we are not fully aware of. In sessions he helps people notice those patterns and how early relationships shape current reactions. This can make anger, grief, addiction or relationship pain easier to understand and work through. He provides both longer-term therapy and shorter interventions. He also offers consultation, reflective groups and psycho-educational support tailored to organisations such as schools, charities and businesses. Brief family interventions are available when a clearer, time-limited focus is needed. Apostolos holds a BSc in Psychology and multiple postgraduate qualifications in psychodynamic and psychoanalytic studies. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which he follows for professional practice. Sessions are offered in English and Greek, and he accepts international clients. He describes psychotherapy as a collaborative process that can aim for change or for learning to accept what cannot be changed. People who want to explore identity, trauma, parenting strain, addiction or long-standing patterns may find this approach helpful.

Psychodynamic thinking and online therapy

Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past relationships and early experiences shape present feelings and behaviours. It helps people see why anger, attachment worries or recurring patterns keep happening, by bringing those influences into awareness and talking about them in the therapy conversation.

Psychodynamic work also attends to unconscious conflicts between different parts of the self that can show up as mood shifts, tension or impulsive actions. This approach can be useful for issues such as trauma, grief, identity questions and long-term emotional patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. The therapist will work with the client to agree goals and to try different ways of working until a good fit is found. That collaboration helps shape whether therapy stays short term or becomes a longer process.

If you are considering online therapy, please confirm the exact session options before booking. The practical benefits often include easier scheduling around work and family, fewer travel demands, and the ability to keep continuity when life requires relocating. Some people also prefer a shorter check-in by phone when they need a brief update or lower bandwidth option. Registered and accredited professionals can discuss which format best fits the client’s needs and daily routine.
