About Fulvio

Dr. Fulvio D'Acquisto is a counsellor with ten years' experience based in the United Kingdom. He holds a PhD and MA and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He works with people facing anxiety, depression and stress, and those coping with life changes and relationship concerns.

He approaches therapy as a guided journey. Sessions are a place to talk through doubts, feelings and frustrations with a listener who aims to understand. His work draws on psychodynamic ideas and human-centred approaches to help people find more meaning and direction in life.

Fulvio describes his practice as integrative, combining elements from psychodynamic, existential and Jungian perspectives. He adapts the way he works to each person rather than relying on one single method. This means sessions can include reflective conversation about past patterns, present difficulties and hopes for the future.

People come to him for a wide range of issues. These include grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, intimacy and sexual concerns, and problems with self-esteem or anger. He also supports those dealing with parenting pressures, fatherhood issues, adoption and attachment-related topics.

Sessions are conducted in English and Italian, and he accepts international clients. He follows professional standards set out by the BACP and maintains regular professional oversight and record-keeping as part of practice management.

How these approaches translate into online therapy

Client-centred therapy focuses on attentive listening and supporting a person to find their own solutions; online sessions using this approach typically centre on empathy, reflection and helping clients clarify their goals. Existential therapy invites discussion about meaning, values and life choices, which can be well suited to conversational online work that examines current life direction and anxieties.

Finding the right approach is often part of the first few sessions. The therapist will work with the client to identify which ideas and methods feel most helpful, combining elements as needed so the process fits the client's aims and preferences. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription.

The original profile does not specify which session formats are provided, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also allow more flexible timing for international clients and sessions in either English or Italian, depending on need.
