Angelika Vraka Counselling and Psychotherapy Avis 

It’s like speaking with a friend. Angelika is so friendly and reassuring, but also direct when it is needed. There was a 3 year gap between when I first spoke with her and my most recent experience and it didn’t feel like it had been that long, there was no awkwardness or feeling of starting again. So opening up felt comfortable and I discovered things I wasn’t even aware of. I have learned much self awareness and that has really helped me to cope better with my feelings and anxiety. She’s just lovely and has helped me so much. I couldn’t recommend her more.

I really found value in my sessions with Angelica. From the very first minute, she helped me clarify and address matters troubling me. When needed, she firmly stated what needed to change and guided me to make changes to achieve the results I wanted. I would definitely use her services again if needed.

I have suffered with my mental health and trauma from a childhood and over the years have been appointed countless amounts of counsellors and therapists which I have never felt have been helpful. Then I met angelika and my view on counselling and psychotherapy completely changed. She has been the most helpful and amazing counsellor I could of asked for instead of just allowing me to get things off my chest she provided me with ways I solve my issues and provided me with ways on moving forward she gave me hard truths that I needed and went out her way in non paid time to send me informative info and videos that would help me, If I ever need to speak to anyone again angelika is the only person I’d be looking for. Thank you so much for how you’ve helped change my life

Angelika has helped me to work through one of the darkest and toughest times I’ve been through. She’s helped me to see thinks with more clarity and most importantly validated that the way I feel in certain situations is ok. By taking onboard suggestions from her I’ve been able to cope in situations I’d previously have felt nervous or anxious about.

I had never had counselling before & in December I made the call as felt I needed someone to talk to who didn’t know me about grief of my dad & in general how I was feeling overwhelmed.
I was given Angelika who on the 1st call got me to open up with things that were upsetting me. After the 1st session I came off the call feeling more positive & felt I had some control back . By the 2nd session I was more positive & could talk easier without crying. Angelika made me see who I was as a person & what I bring to the table with family & friends & also helped me see red flags in both relationships & friends / family that I had allowed .
I have finished my sessions now & feel in a much more positive space & have learnt how to set my boundaries .
Angelika was so easy to talk to & open up so made the whole experience a pleasant one .

Angelika was incredible throughout, really helped me to understand the root cause of my feelings and helped me to tackle them. Walking away a much more relaxed and happier person. Highly recommend, thank you again :)

I was feeling overwhelmed with the demands of life and Angelika helped me unpick things and prioritise what was important for me. She has a winning combination of being super supportive and more direct when needed. I would definitely recommend Angelika.

Angelika was very easy to speak to and gives it to you straight. I got a lot of great ideas/tools from her.

Angelika has been amazing! I have never had counselling before and was very unsure of what to expect. The prospect of unlocking grief hidden away for nearly 50 years, brought to the surface by a recent loss, was very scary. However, Angelika was wonderful. She listened, asked just the right questions, gauged my responses, and helped me to find the right tools to start & continue the healing process. Angelika is so lovely and positive, I would not hesitate to recommend a set of sessions with her. Thank you 😊

I started seeing Angelika during an extremely difficult separation from my fiancé. She was absolutely incredible in supporting me, listening to me and giving me guidance and tools that have been totally instrumental in my journey. It is very much thanks to her that I feel happy and healthy and am excited for the future. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!

Absolutely brilliant. Patient. Empathetic. She is a warm wonderful and caring therapist who asks the right questions. As someone who was new to this, she was extremely welcoming and made my therapy a positive, reflective, and healing experience.

Angelika is a very wonderful person, who is very patient and thoughtful. During my sessions, she would ask me questions that would make me question myself from different perspectives….and it made all the difference. 15 sessions later, I walked away knowing more about myself than ever. I would recommend Angelika to anyone who is looking for someone smart with their questions, really patient, professional and just generally awesome! :)

Angelika is a fantastic counsellor.
Initially i was hesitant to do counselling due to my mental health situation but I’m glad i picked the phone and seeked help. From the first conversation she was very nice and throughout the process helped and supported me. I had 8 sessions with her via FaceTime and i will highly recommend her if anyone is thinking of getting counselling.
From where i started to where i am today is a compliment to her.

I am so grateful for all of Angelika’s advice - she has completely changed how I think about my life. She is always empathetic and kind, and balances this with real advice that challenges the way you approach things for the better.

Honestly I don’t know what I would of done if I didn’t speak to Angelica, made me do a full 180 on how I deal with things and how much happier I am now talking to her, I highly recommend! thank you so much xx

Angelika has the gift of sensibility
She feels exactly what you need and makes you feel at ease.To talk to her
is a life changing experience
I highly recommend her

Angelika went on a journey of transformation with me. I went from being flat and with zero confidence, back to a self that I thought had been lost for good. She understood how to deal with me, knowing when to nurture and when to encourage with direct honesty. I thoroughly recommend Angelika as a therapist, each session was rewarding, insightful and valuable.

My therapy sessions with Angelika have been a blessing. When I first had my session I very anxious but she made me feel at ease and listened and helped me with my problems. I have also noticed a change in myself and its all thanks to Angelika! Highly recommend. 😊

This was my first time trying therapy, I can easily say that my sessions with Angelika were worth every second. I had multiple sessions with her, she’s an amazing listener, she’s caring, open and very honest. Angelika gave me a different perspective on my experiences and traumas. She helped me understand what type of person I am, how to deal with anxiety and stress. She is always available for me and made sure to let me know that she’s there whenever I needed anything. I can’t thank you enough Angelika for your help and support throughout these sessions.
I’ve been recommending my close friends to give therapy a try since then, I can easily say that it was life changing even after a couple of sessions, thank you very very much Angelika!

I would highly recommend anyone to work with Angelika!

I had been having some issues in my personal life the last couple of years that saw me hit an all-time low and suffering from depression. I had always previously rejected the idea of counselling / therapy but was pointed in the direction of my work’s employee assistance programme where I was assigned Angelika. After explaining the situation, Angelika got to work and was brutally honest with me. Her direct approach is exactly what I needed. She immediately understood what my challenges were and gave lots of advice and actions on how to change my situation. I can honestly say I have come out of the sessions with a renewed sense of hope and positivity about the future.
I found Angelika to be caring and kind and very easy to talk to and I cant thank her enough for her help and guidance.
