Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Support
Evangelia draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration, helping clients feel heard and supported as they explore personal values, relationships and identity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can be effective for anxiety, low mood and stress-related problems.She also uses Trauma-Focused techniques when past traumatic experiences are central to a person’s difficulties, offering structured ways to process difficult memories and reduce their ongoing impact. Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process - Evangelia works collaboratively with each person to identify methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the approach as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with Evangelia is available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, giving practical flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and to use modalities that suit a person’s communication style, while still working with registered professionals and therapists who prioritise effective, evidence-informed care.
