Apostolos Fournaris

Apostolos Fournaris offers calm, steady support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction and a wide range of life challenges. He works with adults, children and adolescents and aims to create a non-judgemental place to talk. Apostolos follows the BACP ethical framework and brings 18 years of professional experience to his work.

Apostolos uses psychodynamic therapy to help people understand patterns that repeat in their lives. He listens for what might be happening beneath everyday feelings and behaviour. This can help when someone keeps getting stuck in the same relationship problems, low mood, anxiety or difficulty managing anger.

He provides both short-term and longer-term weekly psychotherapy, and also runs consultations and reflective groups for organisations such as schools and charities. Apostolos offers psycho-educational support tailored to organisational needs and short interventions when families want to explore a particular issue.

His background includes postgraduate work at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust and a master’s degree in Psychodynamic Counselling from the University of Essex. Apostolos is currently completing a PhD in Psychoanalytic Studies. He also trained in psychology and holds qualifications in related social sciences.

Sessions can address grief, trauma and abuse, identity and gender questions, parenting concerns, ADHD and many other worries. He speaks English and Greek and accepts international clients.

How psychodynamic work translates to online therapy

Psychodynamic therapy looks at recurring patterns, early relationships and hidden feelings to help explain why someone acts or reacts in certain ways. In practice this means talking about family history, relationships and repeated behaviours so deeper themes become clearer and more manageable.

He also uses longer term weekly psychotherapy and shorter focused work when that better fits a person's needs. Those options let people choose whether they want an ongoing space to explore lifelong patterns or a brief intervention to address a specific problem.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then agree a plan together. That collaborative decision helps match the pace and length of therapy to what feels most helpful.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around day-to-day life, reduce travel time and permit meetings from different locations. Some people find sessions by video help them read non-verbal cues, while audio-only calls can be shorter and easier to manage when time or bandwidth is limited.
