About Dimitrios

Dimitrios Charizanis offers support for a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, trauma and abuse, and men's wellbeing. He works with people facing career stress, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem and life changes. Dimitrios also supports those dealing with LGBT questions, bipolar mood difficulties, and concerns tied to prejudice or immigration. He speaks English and Greek and works from the United Kingdom.

Dimitrios draws on 13 years of practice to listen carefully and help people untangle what matters most to them. He aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where someone can say what’s hard and consider different options. Conversations focus on what the person wants to change and on small steps that feel manageable.

His style is influenced by client-centred work, which keeps the person’s perspective central. He also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time and existential thinking to explore meaning, choices and responsibilities. Sessions mix open conversation with practical suggestions tailored to each person’s situation.

Dimitrios has experience supporting people through bereavement, relationship breakdown, addiction and complex emotional difficulties. Over the years he has worked across different settings and with a broad range of concerns, bringing steady attention to each person’s story.

People can expect a collaborative, paced approach that balances listening with gentle challenge. He encourages people to try things between sessions and reviews progress together. For those wanting to start, language options include English and Greek, and international clients are accepted.

How these approaches work in online counselling

Dimitrios uses client-centred work to keep the conversation around what matters to the person. This approach prioritises listening, reflection and the client's own goals, and can help with anxiety, stress and relationship concerns.

He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring patterns and themes in someone’s life. That perspective can be useful for understanding repeated relationship difficulties, attachment issues or longstanding emotional responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. He will work collaboratively to choose what fits best based on a person's needs, goals and preferences. Sessions can change over time as priorities shift, and the therapist and client check in together about what is most helpful.

Please confirm the specific online session options before booking, as the profile does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when that suits someone. It also makes it possible for people outside the local area to connect with registered or accredited professionals who offer the approaches described above.
