About Eva

Eva Vass is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, grief, intimacy-related problems and issues connected to identity and neurodiversity. Eva also lists support for parenting concerns, career stress, ADHD and many other life challenges.

Eva practises mainly from a person-centred perspective and describes that way of working as more than a technique. She focuses on listening carefully and responding from a deeper level rather than immediately offering solutions. Sessions are led by the client and the relationship between counsellor and client is central, with clear boundaries and mutual respect.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Psychodynamic thinking is used when it helps to explore life events, subconscious material and recurring themes. Cognitive approaches may be introduced to examine unhelpful thinking patterns when that fits the client’s goals.

Eva has a level 4 diploma in therapeutic counselling and is an individual member of BACP, working within their Code of Ethics. She has completed workshops on safeguarding young people, LGBT terminology and pronouns, supporting young people with eating disorders, a certificate in online and telephone counselling, and other gender and sexuality training.

Her background includes work with both young people and adults on concerns such as anxiety, self-harm, low self-esteem, neurodiversity, suicidal thoughts, transgender issues, childhood trauma, codependency, eating disorders and relationship strain. She invites people to explore their feelings and the roots of how they experience life.

How her approaches translate to online work

Eva uses a person-centred approach that focuses on listening closely and responding from a deeper level. This approach supports people who carry guilt or shame by allowing them to speak without being hurried and by centring the relationship itself as the setting for change.

She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current reactions and patterns. That can help when shame or guilt links back to childhood experiences or recurring relationship dynamics. Emotionally-Focused Therapy elements inform her work with feelings in the moment and with how people connect to others, which can be useful for relational and intimacy-related issues.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences rather than imposing a single style.

The therapist has completed training in online and telephone counselling, but the biography does not list all available session types. Confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or travel, and telephone sessions can be useful when a shorter check-in or no video is preferred. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly work online to help people fit sessions into everyday life.
