About Evangelia

Evangelia Botsaki is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports adults facing anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties. She speaks English and Greek and brings five years of clinical experience to her practice. Evangelia aims for straightforward, calm conversations that help people untangle what is causing pain and find practical next steps.

Her training began with a bachelor’s degree in psychology at Napier University and continued with an MSc in Children and Young People’s Mental Health at the University of Edinburgh.

Background and approach

She also completed a Diploma in Counselling and Groupwork that followed a cognitive behavioural therapy approach in 2019. Evangelia has worked in independent practice and in mental health organisations in Edinburgh. Early placements involved one-to-one work with people experiencing anxiety and low mood, and co-facilitating psychoeducational workshops on depression and on challenging negative thinking.

Her approach is warm and collaborative. She uses Client-Centred techniques to build understanding, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns, and Trauma-Focused Therapy when past experiences are affecting day-to-day life. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical strategies that can be used between appointments.

Evangelia is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. She continues professional development and is training in Transactional Analysis to broaden the tools she brings into sessions. People find her practical, compassionate and consistent when working through stress, self-esteem and grief.

Therapeutic approaches in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on building a trusting, non-judgemental space where the person leads the conversation and the counsellor mirrors understanding. It is useful when someone needs to feel heard and make sense of feelings about relationships, belonging or self-worth.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, works by identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking and behaving. It is often helpful for anxiety, low mood, sleep difficulties and for shifting repetitive negative thinking.

Trauma-Focused Therapy attends directly to difficult or distressing past events and the ways they shape present reactions. It can help when past experiences continue to affect daily life, relationships or emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Evangelia will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences, and make decisions together about which methods to try. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions and adjust plans as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which allow flexibility in how people connect. Video sessions approximate face-to-face conversations, phone calls can fit into a short break, and messaging or live chat work well for brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family life and different time zones while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
