About Apostolos
Apostolos Fournaris is a psychodynamic psychotherapist practising in the United Kingdom with 18 years of professional experience. He is registered with the BACP and offers psychotherapy for adults. He speaks English and Greek and accepts international clients.
He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, trauma and loss. He also lists support for intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, anger, self-esteem and ADHD among his areas of focus. Blended family issues are included in his stated interests for people wanting help with merging households and family dynamics.
His primary method is psychodynamic therapy. In sessions he pays attention to patterns that repeat across relationships and to motives that may be outside conscious awareness. He talks with clients about how early attachments and past relationships continue to shape present behaviour and feelings.
He offers both shorter-term and longer-term weekly psychotherapy. He also provides consultation, reflective group facilitation and psycho-educational input for organisations such as schools and charities. He indicates experience working with adults, children and adolescents in professional roles and with family-focused brief interventions.
His training includes postgraduate work in psychodynamic and psychoanalytic studies and a doctoral programme at the University of Essex. He follows the BACP and BPS ethical frameworks and uses a psychodynamic approach to help people examine how they relate to others and to themselves.
Psychodynamic approaches and remote working
Apostolos uses psychodynamic therapy to look at how patterns from earlier relationships affect current life. This approach pays attention to recurring behaviours, feelings and the often hidden motives that shape reactions. It can help with long-standing difficulties such as relationship problems, grief, and recurring emotional patterns.He also draws on psychoanalytic ideas about attachment and development to make sense of how early bonds influence present choices and interactions. That perspective can be useful for people navigating blended family issues who want to understand why certain conflicts keep happening.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss options with each person and decide together what fits best with the client's needs and goals. This is a collaborative process that may lead to short-term or longer-term plans depending on the focus of the work.
Before booking, confirm which session formats are currently offered. The advantage of working remotely is practical: it can make sessions easier to fit into a busy week, allow quieter time without travel, or let someone choose shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt psychodynamic sessions for remote work while keeping the focus on emotional patterns and relationships.
