Eva Chmelikova, NCPS

Eva Chmelikova is a counsellor who uses relationship-focused approaches to help people through big life shifts. She centres the therapeutic relationship and creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can feel heard and begin to make sense of their situation.

Many clients come because they are grieving, stressed, anxious or feeling disconnected from themselves. Eva works with people facing relationship changes, relocation, career crossroads and shifts in identity. She also supports those coping with trauma, long-term stress and questions around parenting or family dynamics.

Her work draws on attachment-based and client-centred ideas to explore how past bonds shape current patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help spot unhelpful thinking and try out new ways of coping. When useful, mindfulness and creative tools are woven into sessions to deepen awareness and offer practical ways to manage difficult feelings.

Based in the United Kingdom, Eva has four years of counselling experience and holds the NCPS credential. Her background includes supporting adults in private practice and earlier roles with children and young people in counselling settings.

Eva aims to move at each person’s pace and to make starting therapy feel manageable. She encourages clear, practical steps alongside reflective work so people can find direction and build coping skills for life after a major change.

How therapeutic approaches shape online counselling

Attachment-based work focuses on how early bonds affect current relationships and emotional responses. Online sessions can be used to notice patterns in real time, practise new ways of relating and name feelings that come up in everyday life.

Client-centred work emphasises respectful listening and following what matters most to the person. In this approach the counsellor reflects and supports the client to find their own solutions and sense of direction.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels useful, then try methods together. This is a collaborative process and can evolve as needs change.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the exact session formats offered before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, family or travel and can reduce time spent commuting. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when life gets busy and offer options for working without being on camera if that suits someone better.
