Background & Training:
Eva Choi is a fully qualified psychotherapist and a pre-accredited member of the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP). She holds an MA in Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapy (Clinical) from the Tivoli Institute and a BA (Hons) in Counselling Psychology.  Eva provides one-to-one psychotherapy to adults. Her practice is integrative and person-centred, with a strong relational and psychodynamic orientation, and is informed by attachment theory, Gestalt, existential psychotherapy, and somatic perspectives.

Therapeutic Approach:
Eva works collaboratively with clients, exploring both the immediate difficulties they bring to therapy and the underlying feelings, relational patterns and life experiences that may contribute to them. She recognises that people can find themselves caught in familiar ways of coping or struggling with emotions that are difficult to recognise, express or make sense of.  Her integrative approach draws on different therapeutic perspectives according to each client’s needs. This involves supporting clients to explore how different aspects of their experience are connected, while remaining attentive to what they are experiencing emotionally and physically in the here and now. Eva works at a pace that respects each client’s circumstances, readiness and personal values that guide their choices.

Coming to therapy is rarely an easy decision, particularly for those who have carried their difficulties in silence for a long time. Eva recognises the courage it can take to seek therapy and begin engaging with aspects of oneself that may be uncomfortable or difficult to confront. She offers a supportive, confidential space where clients can feel seen and heard, and where painful, confusing or previously unspoken experiences can gradually be explored.

Through this work, Eva supports clients in deepening their understanding of themselves, finding their own voice and developing greater confidence in how they choose to move forward.
