Chrysoula Chlomisiou, BACP

Chrysoula Chlomisiou is a psychodynamic counsellor who helps people facing relationship strain, trauma, grief and low self-esteem. She also supports those coping with depression, addiction, eating or sleeping difficulties, parenting stress and ADHD. Chrysoula speaks English and Greek and practises across the United Kingdom.

She trained first in psychology with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Manchester. Chrysoula then completed two Master’s level qualifications, one in the psychology of child development and another in psychodynamic counselling and psychotherapy at the University of Leicester. Her training included extended periods of supervised clinical work and personal therapy.

Chrysoula uses psychodynamic ways of working to look at patterns that repeat in relationships and in how people feel about themselves. She aims to help people notice early influences and recurring responses so they can make different choices now. Sessions tend to involve careful listening, reflective conversation and linking current struggles to past experiences.

She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - and is also a member of the British Psychological Society. Chrysoula describes her work as thoughtful and relational, taking time to build trust and to understand each person’s story.

People who want practical pacing and emotional understanding may find her approach helpful. She encourages questions about how therapy will fit around daily life and what reasonable short-term goals might look like.

Psychodynamic approaches and online counselling options

Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on how early relationships and long-standing patterns shape current feelings and behaviour. It involves reflective conversation that links past experiences to present difficulties, and it can help with issues such as relationship problems, unresolved grief and recurrent mood struggles.

In sessions the therapist listens for repeating themes and gently points out patterns that may feel familiar but unhelpful. The aim is to make these patterns clearer so people can try different ways of responding and set achievable short-term goals together.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how sessions fit into daily life, and will work collaboratively to agree an approach that suits each person’s needs.

The original biography does not specify which online or in-person session formats are offered, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy around work, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins from a quieter location when that helps. Registered or accredited professionals often use online work to maintain continuity of care when meeting in person is difficult.
