About Evangelia

Evangelia Botsaki is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with five years' experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger and relationship difficulties. She also helps people coping with trauma, low self-esteem, grief, sleeping problems and life changes.

Evangelia trained in psychology in Athens and completed a bachelor’s degree in psychology at Napier University. She went on to study for an MSc in Children and Young People’s Mental Health at the University of Edinburgh and completed a Diploma in Counselling and Groupwork using a CBT approach in 2019. Since then she has worked in private practice supporting adults with anxiety, low mood and relational concerns.

Her work uses clear, practical techniques alongside open listening. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns. She also uses Client-Centred Therapy to focus on what matters to the person in front of her.

Evangelia has undertaken additional training in Trauma-Focused Therapy and is currently studying Transactional Analysis. She offers sessions in English and Greek and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Evangelia commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy when working online. CBT focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and behaviour and testing small changes to reduce stress or anger. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and processing difficult experiences to reduce their ongoing impact.

She also draws on Client-Centred Therapy to keep conversations grounded in the client's priorities. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist and client will look at needs, goals and preferences and agree what to try first, then adapt as work progresses.

Session options are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, remove travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats use less bandwidth or do not require being on camera, which can help with practical limitations while still allowing focused therapeutic work. Registered or accredited professionals can use these approaches effectively in remote sessions, and Evangelia will discuss what suits the person's life and goals during the first appointment.
