About Dimitrios

BACP, NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with 13 years of experience, Dimitrios Charizanis helps people facing anxiety, depression, grief and relationship concerns. He supports LGBT issues, intimacy and sexual culture questions, addiction and trauma. Dimitrios works in English and Greek and accepts international clients. Sessions begin with listening and mapping out what matters to the person sitting in front of him.

Background and approach: Dimitrios uses client-centred ideas to keep sessions focused on the person's priorities. That means he pays attention to what you say and follows your pace so you decide what to look at next. He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to notice patterns from past relationships that keep recurring now. Existential themes are part of his work too, helping people think about meaning, responsibility and choices when life feels unsettled.

He has experience with a wide range of concerns, including self-esteem, anger, sleeping problems, bipolar mood shifts, and coping with life changes. Additional focus areas include attachment issues, BDSM and kink, polyamory and non-monogamous relationship questions, and immigration-related stresses. He also supports people dealing with hospice and end-of-life matters, bereavement, and guilt or shame.

Practical aspects: sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time and costs vary with location. To start, the reader is asked to select the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. Dimitrios is recorded as a BACP and NCPS professional; those are the credentials shown.

How his approaches shape online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on what the person brings to each session. The counsellor listens closely and follows the client’s priorities, which can help with anxiety, stress and relationship concerns. Psychodynamic Therapy looks for repeating patterns from earlier relationships that appear again now; this can help when history keeps influencing present choices. Existential Therapy pays attention to questions of meaning, responsibility and choice, which can be useful when someone faces major life changes or confusion about direction.

Working out which approach fits best is part of the work. Dimitrios will collaborate with the person to try different ways of working and agree what feels most useful. That decision is based on the client’s needs, goals and preferences rather than a preset method.

Practical benefits of online work depend on the session options offered for this profile. The biography does not list explicit session formats, so readers should confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals will discuss how to arrange timings and the session length that best fits everyday life.
