About Evangelia
Evangelia Botsaki offers a calm, down-to-earth approach for people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, low mood or big life changes. She speaks English and Greek and aims to make sessions feel approachable and clear. Her work is collaborative and centred on what each person needs right now.
Evangelia trained in psychology in Athens and later in Scotland, where she completed a bachelor’s degree in psychology at Napier University and an MSc in Children and Young People’s Mental Health at the University of Edinburgh. She also completed a Diploma in Counselling and Groupwork using a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach in 2019. Since then she has worked in private practice supporting adults with anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties.
In early career placements she provided one-to-one therapy and co-facilitated workshops on depression and unhelpful thinking. That practical work shaped how she structures sessions now - she focuses on clear steps and simple tools alongside open listening. She has additional training in Trauma-Focused Therapy and is currently studying Transactional Analysis to broaden her skills.
Typical topics she helps people with include stress, intimacy-related issues, career concerns, grief, sleeping problems and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues such as attachment and abandonment, codependency, body image and recovery from domestic violence.
Evangelia describes her style as warm and compassionate. She aims to help people notice unhelpful patterns, try different ways of responding, and build stronger ways of coping over time.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Evangelia works from a client-centred base that places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and helping people find their own ways forward, which can be especially helpful for building trust and self-understanding.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past traumatic events are affecting current life, and it focuses on stabilising symptoms and processing traumatic memories in a paced way.
Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to agree what to try first and adapt methods as therapy progresses. Goals and preferences guide which tools and techniques are used.
