About Evangelia
Evangelia Botsaki is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are carrying stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, anger and depression. Sessions are offered in English and Greek and she also accepts international clients.
She began studying psychology in Athens and continued her training in Scotland, completing a bachelor’s degree at Napier University and an MSc in Children and Young People’s Mental Health at the University of Edinburgh. Evangelia also completed a Diploma in Counselling and Groupwork with a CBT approach in 2019 and has practised one-to-one therapy since then.
Her work focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and building practical skills to manage distress. She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques to challenge negative thoughts and to teach coping strategies. She also draws on Client-Centred Therapy to keep sessions collaborative and focused on the person’s priorities.
Evangelia has undertaken additional training in Trauma-Focused Therapy and is studying Transactional Analysis. That training helps her address experiences of abandonment, attachment difficulties, and the effects of abuse. She has experience running psychoeducational workshops and supporting people through life changes and caregiving strain.
In sessions she aims to help people make sense of their reactions, practise new ways of responding, and reduce patterns that keep them stuck. Practical tools, focused discussion and gradual exposure to difficult material are all part of her approach.
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Evangelia commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy alongside a client-centred way of working. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and building coping skills, which can help with anxiety, low mood and persistent self-critical beliefs. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the emotional and physiological impact of past harm and offers ways to process traumatic memories and reduce reactivity.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then agree on techniques together. That collaborative process makes it easier to try different ways of working and adjust as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in between commitments, fewer travel arrangements, or the option to work without video when that helps concentration or bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals often find that remote work allows consistent attendance and easier scheduling around daily responsibilities.
