About Evangelia

Evangelia Botsaki offers calm, down-to-earth support for adults dealing with eating and food-related concerns alongside anxiety, low mood, and relationship strain. She aims to make therapy feel practical and approachable. Conversations focus on what is happening now, what matters to the person, and small steps that can make daily life easier.

Evangelia trained in psychology in Athens and Scotland, completing 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 holds a Diploma in Counselling and Groupwork (CBT approach) from 2019 and has five years of practice experience. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Her style is warm and collaborative. Sessions tend to combine client-centred listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioural work and trauma-focused approaches. She uses clear language and helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns, try new coping strategies, and make sense of difficult experiences.

Evangelia has delivered one-to-one therapy and co-facilitated workshops on depression and challenging negative thinking during placements in Edinburgh. Since then she has worked in private practice supporting adults with anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, and relationship difficulties. She is also training further in Transactional Analysis to expand how she supports clients.

She speaks English and Greek and accepts international clients. If someone wants straightforward, empathic support that mixes listening with practical skills, Evangelia may be a good fit.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people find their own answers. It is useful for building trust, exploring feelings about food and body image, and increasing self-compassion.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It offers practical exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking, try different coping strategies, and change patterns that maintain anxiety or low mood.

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people make sense of painful or frightening experiences and reduce their ongoing impact. It uses careful, paced methods to work with memories and responses that can affect relationships and daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work with the client to choose or blend methods based on needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape sessions so they feel useful and manageable.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caring duties or travel. It can reduce the need to commute and allow shorter check-ins when needed. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions help sustain regular contact and apply tools between meetings in everyday situations.
