Feeling stuck? Is anxiety or low mood affecting your life? I am interested in listening to your story and help you explore your thoughts, feelings and their meaning.
People usually come to therapy when they feel that they no longer have the ability to deal with the difficulties they are experiencing. When the previous ways of coping and support by friends and relatives are not enough to offer them the solutions and relief they seek. I offer a safe and confidential space for you to talk about any issues you might have. I will listen to your story with compassion and help you find your own solutions, whether that is making effective changes in your life or change the way you view yourself, others and experience relationships.
The focus of therapy is for you to find effective ways of coping with your difficulties in the here and now by becoming more aware of repetitive patterns of interpretation and behaviour, which can impact the view that you hold for yourself and others, the quality you experience in your interpersonal relationships (friendly, romantic, professional) and the feeling of satisfaction for your everyday life. Sessions at times might focus on helping you to discover how difficulties and experiences from the past still affect the here and now and to learn new methods and skills in order to deal with these difficulties.
In the last 4 years that I have been practising as a therapist, I have helped people experiencing a variety of issues, such as anxiety, panic attacks, social anxiety, health anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, trauma, sleeping difficulties, anger management issues, low self-esteem.
You might have never contacted a therapist before or you might already have experiences of previous counselling in a variety of settings. Whatever is your experience, making a first contact with a therapist can be hard and I respect the courage it takes to make this first step. I will be happy to answer any questions you might have.

Evangelia has been amazingly helpful to me during our therapy sessions. She creates a calm, non-judgemental atmosphere where you feel safe to talk about anything. She listens and makes you challenge your perceptions in a way that is very effective. I am very grateful for her support and for being a friendly face each week during my darkest time. Highly recommend.
