Eva Vass, BACP

Eva Vass offers a person-centred way of working that puts relationship and presence first. She listens to understand rather than to respond, and she encourages people to explore their feelings and thoughts in a calm, non-judgemental space. Eva aims to help people reconnect with themselves and find kinder ways to relate to their experiences.

Eva draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She also uses elements of emotionally-focused work to help people notice and name strong feelings. At times she explores past events and unconscious material using psychodynamic ideas, and she may introduce cognitive tools to spot unhelpful thinking patterns.

Her core style is non-directive and collaborative. Clients lead the pace and topics while she provides steady empathy and clear boundaries. The relationship itself is treated as the place where change can be understood and practised.

Eva works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating and body-image problems, and ADHD. She lists ageing and geriatric issues among her additional focuses and can support people facing life stage changes and caregiver stress.

She holds a level 4 diploma in therapeutic counselling and is an individual member of BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Eva has three years of practice experience and has completed workshops on topics such as safeguarding, LGBTQ terminology, eating-disorder support and online and telephone counselling.

Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. To begin, clients use the site's Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How her approaches work online

Eva combines a person-centred stance with attachment-based and emotionally-focused methods. Person-centred work means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead, helping people feel heard and understood. Attachment-based ideas look at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help when someone wants to understand recurring difficulties in connections with others. Emotionally-focused techniques help people recognise, name and work with strong emotions to improve how they relate in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss different ways of working with each client and decide together what fits best with the client's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and can change as therapy progresses.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life, for example by avoiding travel and allowing appointments during breaks or from another suitable location. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, and sessions without video if that suits a person's concentration or bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals offer online options, and she will help you choose a practical arrangement that fits your routine and needs.
