About Eva

Eva Hoffman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York who focuses on helping people manage depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and big life changes. She uses practical talk and collaborative planning to help people move forward. Eva pays attention to each person's situation and adapts her approach to what they need in the moment.

Her main ways of working include client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, motivational interviewing, psychodynamic ideas, and solution-focused methods. That mix lets her address immediate problems like coping with loss or overwhelm, while also looking at longer patterns that keep problems repeating.

Eva has five years of clinical experience and has supported people dealing with trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, family challenges, and bereavement. She also offers help around related concerns such as abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, body image, and eating or food-related problems.

In session she aims to create straightforward plans and small experiments you can try between meetings. She listens for what matters most to you and works together to set goals that fit your life. Her style balances practical skill-building with attention to personal history and meaning.

People who want to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on availability. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and international clients may be accepted.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and responding to what matters most to each person. The therapist follows your lead and helps you name goals that feel relevant and manageable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Eva will collaborate with you to choose methods that fit your goals and daily life. That may mean combining short-term solution-focused steps with deeper psychodynamic exploration about patterns that repeat over time.

Confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, help with shorter check-ins during a workday, or remove travel time so you can focus on regular progress. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively at a distance, and your therapist will adjust pace and tools to suit remote sessions and your preferences.
