About Apostolos
Apostolos Fournaris offers calm, focused support for people struggling with depression, anxiety and life changes. He writes plainly and listens carefully to help someone make sense of repeated patterns or sudden shifts in mood. Sessions are aimed at adults and young people who want a space to talk and reflect.
He works from a psychodynamic perspective, looking at how past relationships and unconscious patterns shape current feelings. In sessions he helps people notice recurring themes, understand their reactions, and consider different ways of relating to themselves and others.
Background and approach
This approach can be helpful for issues linked to mood, grief, identity and relationship patterns. Fournaris has 18 years of professional experience and follows the ethical frameworks of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, noted as BACP. His academic background includes postgraduate study in psychoanalytic and psychodynamic subjects and a bachelors degree in psychology.
He also speaks Greek as well as English. He offers both shorter focused work and longer weekly psychotherapy, and can adapt the pace to the person’s needs. He also provides consultation, reflective group facilitation and psycho-educational work for organisations such as schools or charities.
People can bring worries about stress, addictions, parenting, bereavement, trauma, identity and many other concerns. Sessions aim to uncover unhelpful patterns, to support clearer choices, and to help people who want to understand how they relate to themselves and others.

Approaches Apostolos lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Short-term psychodynamic work focuses on a specific issue and can help with immediate problems like anxiety, anger or a recent loss. Longer-term psychodynamic therapy explores deeper patterns and repeated life themes that may underlie depression or ongoing relationship difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and will collaborate to choose whether brief or longer sessions suit you best. This collaborative process helps match method and pace to what you want to achieve.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video lets the therapist and client keep face-to-face interaction when that helps. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat or text works well for brief check-ins or for people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to access support across locations.
