Chrysoula Chlomisiou, BACP

Chrysoula Chlomisiou helps people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addiction and eating or sleeping difficulties. She also supports those coping with parenting challenges, anger, career uncertainty, bipolar disorder, ADHD and major life changes. Chrysoula works in English and Greek and practices from the United Kingdom. Chrysoula trained first with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Manchester. She went on to complete two Master’s level qualifications, including a Master’s in Psychology of Child Development and a UK counselling training in psychodynamic counselling and psychotherapy at the University of Leicester. Her training included years of therapy experience and supervised clinical practice. Her approach draws on psychodynamic therapy, which looks at patterns from the past that affect how people feel and behave now. In sessions she helps people notice repeated thoughts and feelings, and links them to present problems. The aim is to make these patterns clearer so that people can make different choices in relationships and everyday life. Chrysoula is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. She also holds membership of the British Psychological Society, the BPS, and works in line with their professional standards. These memberships reflect her ongoing professional commitments. People who meet Chrysoula can expect a calm, reflective space to talk about painful topics and to work through them at a steady pace. She combines discussion of present difficulties with attention to past experiences that still matter now.

How psychodynamic work adapts to online therapy

Psychodynamic therapy focuses on how past relationships and early experiences shape current patterns of feeling and behaviour. In gentle, reflective conversation the therapist helps a person spot recurring themes and links between the past and present. This can help with relationship problems, grief, self-esteem and long-standing emotional difficulties.

Psychodynamic counselling and psychotherapy also pays attention to emotions that arise in the therapy space itself, including strong feelings that come up between sessions. Talking these through helps people understand why certain situations trigger particular reactions and can guide slower, lasting change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together with the client decide whether psychodynamic work or a different focus is the best fit. That choice is revisited as therapy progresses to ensure it still meets the client's needs.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Many people value online work because it can fit around daily life, reduce travel time and make attending easier when schedules are tight. Some formats also allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that better suits practical needs.
