About Chrysoula

Chrysoula Chlomisiou is a psychologist and psychodynamic psychotherapist with six years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are coping with relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, eating and sleeping problems, parenting stresses and anger. Chrysoula also supports people facing career questions, bipolar disorder, ADHD and life changes.

Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Manchester and two Master’s level qualifications, including a Master’s in the Psychology of Child Development. She completed a UK-based counselling training in psychodynamic counselling and psychotherapy at the University of Leicester. Chrysoula is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - and the British Psychological Society.

In sessions she uses psychodynamic ideas to help people notice patterns that affect current life and relationships. That can mean looking at long-standing feelings, recurring reactions and early family influences that link to present problems. Conversations focus on how past experiences shape current behaviour and emotions.

People can expect a thoughtful, reflective approach that examines feelings beneath surface reactions. Sessions explore how attachment, family of origin issues and adoption or foster care experiences may influence self-image and relationships. Chrysoula also addresses practical concerns like sleep, eating and substance use as part of the overall picture.

She offers work in English and Greek and keeps to professional standards set by BACP and BPS. Prospective clients who want to begin are invited to follow the online matching and booking steps to arrange an initial session.

Psychodynamic approaches and online sessions

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past relationships and early experiences shape current feelings and behaviour. It helps people who notice repeating patterns in relationships, ongoing low mood, or strong reactions that seem out of step with the moment. Sessions often focus on feelings that are hard to name and on making sense of repeated responses to others.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss how psychodynamic ideas might help and will collaborate with the client to decide on the best way forward. That choice will reflect the client’s concerns, goals and preferences rather than a fixed method.

Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around daily life and reducing travel time. Online meetings can make it easier to keep regular contact when schedules are busy, and they can allow for shorter check-ins if needed. The exact session formats are not listed here, so confirm current online session options before booking to make sure they suit your routine and needs.
